Description

The former animal shelters, located immediately west of the main stable block at Estcourt Park, date from the early 19th century and are currently only partly in use. Constructed from rubble stone, the building features a pantile roof to the north and a hipped corrugated asbestos roof to the west. The structure is arranged in an L-shape around two sides of a courtyard, with a single storey on the north side and a loft on the west side.

The northern wing has twelve segmental arches, of which only two are completely open; the others are infilled with recessed stonework that includes doors or two-light openings. The piers that divide the bays are made of dressed stone, and some original feeding equipment remains in place. The western wing has eight similar arches on the left, with only the far left arch open, and five different loft openings above. There is a larger similar arch to the right and a single door with a square opening above in the far right corner.

While modest in appearance, these shelters are an important part of the stable group at Estcourt Park, complementing the small barn opposite, the main stable block, and the former coach house to the east.
