Description

The stable block north of Parnham House, built around 1910 during Hans Sauer's period of alterations, features hamstone walls topped with a crenellated parapet and stone slate roofs. The building is designed in a symmetrical U shape and consists of 2 and a half storeys with a central section of three bays. It includes three-light stone mullion windows with four-centred heads and returned labels above. A central projecting porch has niches and a bow-oriel above it, along with Nash-style pinnacles. The wings on either side have wide four-centred arches at the ground floor, which are now glazed, and are adorned with confronting ogee mouldings.

At the rear, there are stables along the lane with rubble walls and a tiled roof, standing two storeys high. This section features five windows, which are two-light wooden casements with stone lintels above, as well as two stable doors with square wooden frames. The gable end of the rear range has two three-centred arches and plank two-leaf doors. The stable block is listed as Grade II* due to its significant group value, and its design is reminiscent of the entrance to Chantmarle, another Strode House.
