Description

The outbuildings consist of a wash-house, cart shed, and stables with a well-covering, forming part of the courtyard to the rear of Putsborough Manor House. They are likely from the 18th century. The construction is of whitewashed rendered rubble and cob, with a thatched roof, half-hipped at the left end and gabled at the right. The buildings follow an L-shaped plan, creating two sides of the rear courtyard of Putsborough Manor House. The courtyard-facing side includes a plank door on the right and a square opening to the left of double plank doors leading to the cart entrance, featuring a timber lintel. The longer range facing the house is used as stables, with a loft above. Features include a two-plank door to the right, a door with four pigeon holes above, a loft opening above, and a three-light window to the right, also with four pigeon holes above a well covering attached to the left end of the outer wall by a rubble wall. Rubble walls extend to the back and sides, rising as a low, arched stone rubble roof. Iron twist shafts are present at the front gate.
