Description

The building consists of former coach houses and stables, now converted into two houses, along with a cart shed range. It dates from the mid-19th century and is constructed of coursed and dressed limestone, featuring ashlar chimneys and a Welsh slate roof. The two-storey coach house forms the north side of a courtyard and is connected to the stables on the east side by a gateway, with the cart shed range located on the south side.

The coach house has a large, off-centre round archway with a full gable above, and a mullioned and transomed casement window situated above the archway. To the left, there are three half gables with stone mullioned cross windows, and below these, there are mullioned and transomed casements flanking a segmental arched doorway. There is also a dormer at eaves level to the right, which has a hipped roof. The building features tall eaves-mounted chimneys.

At the northeast corner of the yard, there is a gatehouse set at a 45-degree angle, which has a large pointed archway and a round arched window arcade above. The gatehouse is adorned with crenellated parapets and has two flanking turrets, one of which has an octagonal top that previously supported a domed cupola, now removed.

The stable range includes a loft in the central section, with symmetrical mullioned and transomed windows on either side of a central segmental arched doorway, and a similar loft doorway above in a hipped half-dormer. The north-facing cart shed range features pointed arched doorways. The interiors have not been inspected. This building is noted for being an unusually good example of a coach house and stable range, originally built to serve the nearby Owlpen House, which was demolished in 1955 after a fire.
