Description
The outbuilding and wall attached to the west side of Portledge Hotel is a Grade II listed structure. This former cartshed and stable dates from the mid to late 16th century, while the wall is from the early 19th century. The outbuilding is constructed of coursed slatestone rubble, with cob at the rear of the cartshed and the first floor of the chapel attached to the left. It has a 20th-century slate roof.
The six-bay cartshed features round piers at the open front. The chapel has a doorway in the front wall and a mid-19th century two-light stone-mullioned window with chamfered and Tudor-arched architraves in the left gable end. Inside, the stable contains a mid to late 16th century A-frame truss with trenchings for purlins, a halved and crossed apex, and a collar with open notched-lapped joints pegged through the principal rafters. The cartshed includes five similar trusses with curved collars.
