Description

The stables at Batsford Park were built in the late 19th century, with some minor alterations in the 20th century. They were likely designed by Sir Ernest George for Lord Redesdale. The structure is made of rock-faced limestone with ashlar dressings around the openings, topped with a roof of thin limestone slate and concrete tiles. A wooden lantern with a wood shingle roof and a rock-faced stone chimney is also present.

The stables have an 'H'-shaped plan, with an additional gable extending from the rear center. The facade is symmetrical and single-storey, featuring doorless 20th-century double openings in the right and left gable ends. A string course connects moulded kneelers, with a relieving arch and ventilation slit above. There are three stable doors set between projecting gables, all within chamfered surrounds and featuring moulded brackets in the upper corners. A decorative timbered gable is positioned over the central door, with matching gables over stone-mullioned cross windows on either side.

The forward-facing gables have saddleback gable coping, and a central lantern displays pierced quatrefoil decoration and a curved pyramidal roof. An oval chimney is located at the rear center of the gable end. Inside, the walls are lined with brick and tiled to waist height, and the roof features queen struts and a braced tie.
