Description
This building is a stable and dovecote, dating from the 18th century, with possible alterations from the 19th and 20th centuries. It is constructed of rubble brought to course, featuring ashlar quoins and dressings, and has a graduated stone slate roof. The structure is two storeys high and consists of one main section with two bays, along with a side outshut addition that has a catslide roof on the right.
The front of the building has quoins on the left side. There is a large double board door with a rectangular opening above it. To the left of this door, there is a line of quoins that originally formed the right-hand side of the wall. Next to these is a board door set in a moulded, quoined surround, with a tripartite lintel above the existing lintel. To the left of this is a window, and above it is a hatchway with a board door. The gable features five tiers of square bird holes with ledges, arranged in a triangular pattern, and large coping stones are positioned below the gableted finial. The rear of the building has a similar eaves treatment, while the left return is blind. The right return, which is the outshut, is made of coursed squared stone and has a window on the right.
Inside the outshut, there is a quoined, timber-lintelled doorway leading into the dovecote, which features a single tie-beam truss with 'V'-struts.
