Description
The stables at Chalcot House are a stable block built in the 1870s, likely designed by J.P. St Aubyn for the Phipps family. The structure features Flemish bond brickwork and a tiled roof, with brick stacks topped by moulded stone cappings. The building encloses a courtyard on three sides. The main range includes four double planked doors and semi-circular headed double carriage doors on either side. The attic has five 6-pane sash windows in gabled half-dormers, with dentilled brick cornices and corbels for the rainwater gutter below the windows. A square clock tower with a tiled tapered spire rises from the roof. The flanking wings, used for stabling, have either segmental or round-arched planked doors and segmental-headed 6-pane sash windows, with lower roofs and half-dormers that feature pigeon holes in the gables. The outer facing sides also have segmental-headed sashes, while the main range includes four half-dormers.
