Stables 5 Metres South Of Wallon House

The building is a pair of stables, likely from the 18th century, located 5 metres south of Wallon House in Drewsteignton. The stables are constructed of plastered cob on stone rubble footings, with some areas patched in stone rubble, and they have a corrugated iron roof that was originally thatch. The stables face west and include an open-fronted cartshed, which is now used as a woodstore, at the right end. There are two doorways, one at each end of the stables, and two hayloft loading hatches positioned more towards the middle. A shuttered window is located between the doors, with a slit window next to the left door. The roof is hipped at both ends. Inside, the stables feature plain carpentry details, including A-frame roof trusses with pegged lap-jointed collars. These stables are part of a group of attractive listed farm buildings in front of Wallon House.
