Offices,Stableblock And Coach Houses And Enclosing Walls Immediately North Of Leyhill

Offices, stableblock, coach houses, and enclosing walls, dating to circa 1850 and designed by S.S. Teulon, are located immediately north of Leyhill. The buildings form three sides of a square yard and are now used as workshops and a Prison Service Museum. They are constructed of coursed rubble with Bath stone dressings, and have plain and fish scale tiled roofs.

The west range consists of a single-storey building comprising six stables, now workshops, featuring plank doors and single and two-light casement windows, with a projecting pentice over a setted walkway. The north range has, centrally, a two-storey, three-bay groom's quarters with three gables, featuring three three-light cross windows and three plank doors within chamfered surrounds and under relieving arches. To the left is a single-storey two-bay stable range; to the right are three coach houses with chamfered, depressed arch surrounds.

The east range incorporates three coach houses mirroring those on the north range. A central entrance tower has a four-centred arch carriageway, gables to all four sides, and above it a central clock tower with a tiled base, a louvred lantern, and an ogee dome. A single-storey range with three two-light casement windows is located to the south. A tall rubble quadrant wall connects the east range to a four-centred archway. On the south side of this archway is another quadrant wall with a single-storey dairy built against it, returning to the north east corner of the house.

A freestanding building range occupies the centre of the yard. An octagonal game larder is centrally positioned, featuring two-light casement windows to each elevation, a plank door under a Y-tracery window, an octagonal louvred lantern, and a plain tiled roof. Workshops with hipped roofs flank the larder. To the west is a former brewhouse or gasworks, composed of a square two-storey tower at the west end, a hipped roof, a large octagonal louvred lantern, three two-light casement windows, clustered octagonal brick stacks, and a two-storey east range ending in a gabled cross wing.
