Description
The stable buildings to Rodney House, dating from around 1790, are located on Roundstone Street. They are constructed of brick with stone dressings and feature two pavilions to the east of Rodney House, topped with slate roofs. The coach house to the south has a large archway with double doors on the ground floor and a round-headed hay loft above, which is adorned with a pediment. There is an extension to the right of the coach house.
To the north, there is a lodge with a stone eaves cornice that forms the base of pedimented gable ends, leading to a shallow pitched roof covered in corrupted asbestos. The lodge features two lunettes facing Polebarn Road and a large archway that contains a smaller, blocked entrance to Roundstone Street. The two pavilions are connected by a six-foot brick wall with stone coping and a central entrance. The lodge is also connected to Rodney House by a similar wall that is partly rendered.
These stable buildings, along with Rodney House, the stable yard, garden railings, and nearby properties including Nos 2 to 4, No 5 (Rodney House), Nos 8 to 13, and No 25 (Lovemead House), form a cohesive group with Polebarn House and its boundary wall, gatepiers, and gates, as well as the Yerbury Almshouses on Yerbury Street.
