Description

The stables at Bloxworth House, located approximately 10 metres east of the house, are a Grade II* listed stable range built in two phases, dated 1649 and 1669. The structure features brick walls, with the earlier section displaying a diaper pattern made from burnt headers. The roofs are tiled, complemented by stone eaves courses and coped gables topped with ball finials. The building is one storey high with attics and includes three doorways that have four-centred arched stone heads. There are also four three-light stone mullioned windows fitted with lead lights. Inside, some original stable fittings are still present. The stables were under repair at the time of the survey in 1983.
