Clouds Estate Office Clouds Stables Holly Cottage Stable House

Clouds Estate Office, Holly Cottage, Stable House, and Clouds Stables are stables and grooms' accommodation for Clouds House, designed by Philip Webb for Percy Wyndham in the 1880s. The building features limestone ashlar on the ground floor and English bond brick on the first floor, topped with tiled roofs and brick stacks. It consists of extensive two-storey and single-storey ranges arranged around two courtyards.

The main courtyard is to the west, flanked on the west side by the Estate Office, which was formerly a nags stable with grooms' rooms above. It has 12-pane sash windows, 3-light casements, and 20th-century doors on the ground floor. The gabled first floor has four 2-light leaded casements and a tiled offset between the ground and first floors.

On the north side, there is an entrance to Holly Cottage, which was formerly the head groom's house. This part features a 3-light mullioned casement, a planked door, and a sash window. The north range, now known as The Stable House, is symmetrical with a central 3-storey tower that has a hipped roof and 2-light leaded casements. Each side has a 2-storey range with casements and a blocked segmental arch on stone imposts, which was formerly open. The left side has an inserted door with a reset bay leaf frieze and garage doors, while the right side features planked doors and casements.

The south-facing side of the north range has four 12-pane sashes on the ground floor and 2-light casements on the tile-hung first floor, with French windows in blocked archways on either side and hipped attic dormers. The flanking wings have 2-light casements in the gable ends.

The east stable yard includes single-storey ranges of stables and carriage houses, with large blocked segmental arches featuring planked doors and fanlights, as well as 3-light leaded casements on the west side. The north and south ranges are still in use as stables, with 12-pane sashes on the outer south side, four hipped dormers with pivot-hung windows on the outer north side, and flat-headed louvre vents on the roofs. The cobbled yard has access from the east end between tiled gate piers. This building is a good example of Webb's use of local materials and vernacular details in estate construction.
