Description
The stable and dwelling range located approximately 10 metres south-west of Chantry Farm is a 17th-century building. It is constructed from coursed rubble and ashlar, featuring a gable-ended tiled roof with stone coping on the left side and a stone slate verge at the rear. The building has a rubble plinth and stands two storeys high with approximately five bays of irregular window arrangements.
On the ground floor, there are two-light hollow-chamfered stone mullioned windows. The building has two doors with depressed four-centred, roll-moulded heads and continuous jambs; the right door has its left jamb rebuilt. A door on the left side seems to have been created from a former window. Above these doors are two loft doors. The north and east walls have various two and three-light stone mullioned windows, some of which are blocked. The north door is similar to those on the east facade.
Internally, a blocked door suggests there may have been a central cross-passage. The first floor features a fireplace with a four-centred head in a square surround. The southern end of the building contains wooden stable facilities, while the northern end has pegged wooden beams, likely used for candle-making. This building is unusual, and its exact original function remains uncertain.
