Description
The stables, coach houses, and outbuildings located approximately 30 meters southwest of the mansion were built between 1809 and 1815 by Sir Jeffry Wyatville for Sir Paul Baghott, with various additions by T.H. Wyatt for Sir John Dorington. These structures are made of ashlar and random rubble limestone, topped with stone slate and concrete plain tile roofs. The buildings have an irregular plan, forming a courtyard enclosed by a curtain wall.
At the north end, the main section features a crenellated curtain wall with a circular tower that has round profile string courses and a battered plinth at each end. The left tower is taller and includes cross and loop slits along with lancet openings; the lower right tower, which formerly had a conical stone roof, is now missing. A large 4-centred coach doorway with plank doors is centrally located between these towers. To the left, there is a lower square tower set back in the wall, along with various 2-light mullioned casements that have pointed heads.
On the east side, the irregularly planned curtain wall includes a circular tower with loop slits, trefoil lancets, and pointed doorways, topped with a conical tiled roof. A low archway is also present in this wall. In the courtyard, there is a tower in the southwest corner featuring mixed lancets and two coach doorways. An L-plan stable block extends to the north, showcasing Tudor arched doorways and 2-light mullioned windows. A central 4-centred loft doorway is set within a small parapet gable. The overall design is elaborate and intended to resemble a castle, serving as a striking garden feature.
