Description

The stable block, built in 1838, is located approximately 60 metres north-north-west of Heanton Satchville. It features walls made of small dressed blocks of slate stone and has a hipped slate roof with rear lateral brick stacks. The building has a U-shaped plan, with a coach house at the end of each wing and a central tack room, alongside a groom's cottage to its right.

The exterior is single storey and includes a central entrance archway with a pediment, above which is a date stone marking the year 1838. Behind the archway, there is a recessed wall with a central door leading to the tack room and a window on each side. The left section of the arch has a central door flanked by windows, while the projecting wing has had a garage door inserted at its inner end, with an original door and window beyond, as well as blocked former coach house doorways at the end.

To the right of the archway, the former groom's accommodation features two original 16-pane sash windows and a blocked doorway in the centre. The right-hand wing has two windows on either side of a plank door, along with the original coach house doors at the end. Most of the surviving original windows have narrow lights with overlapping panes, apart from the 16-pane sashes.
