Description
The stables, located approximately 120 meters northeast of Kitley House, date from around 1820 to 1825 and are likely built around the same time as the remodeling of Kitley House by G.S. Repton. They are designed in a classical style and constructed from stone rubble with ashlar dressings. The roofs are hipped with slurried slate and feature wide eaves. The building is symmetrically arranged around a courtyard.
The coach house, situated on the north side, is two storeys high and consists of five bays, with the end bays slightly advanced. It has small square windows on the first floor and three segmentally arched carriage doors on the ground floor, along with chamfered round-arched stable doorways at either end. This section includes a parapet, a string course, and small ashlar chimney stacks.
Flanking the courtyard are single-storey stables on the east and west, which have projecting gabled portals with chamfered segmentally arched carriageways. The yard is enclosed by lower single-storey wings on the south side, featuring a central entrance flanked by plain gate piers.
