Description
This building is a cottage and stables with an adjoining cart shed, located approximately 6 metres north-east of Hedge Barton Farmhouse. It dates from the mid-19th century and features granite rubble walls, with part of the cottage front rendered. The doorways have dressed granite voussoirs, and there is a rendered brick chimney stack. The roof is made of corrugated asbestos and has gable ends.
The original layout includes a cottage on the right side, stables in the centre, and a coach-house on the left. Attached to the left is a row of three cart sheds. The coach-house has been converted into additional stabling. The two-storey structure includes a loft above. The cottage has a regular two-window front with 20th-century wooden casements and a door on the right side, which is enclosed in a 20th-century gabled brick and glazed porch. The central stable doorway features a loading door above in a half-dormer, both with segmental voussoir arches. There is a two-light casement window on the ground floor to the left of the door. On the far left, there is a wide doorway to the coach house, also with a segmental voussoir arch, and a small window at the top of the left gable. The attached row of cart sheds has three wide doorways, with the leftmost one having a segmental voussoir arch.
Inside, the original wooden loose box partitions and doors are still intact, featuring iron bars above and wooden hayracks. The coach house also contains stable partitions, although these are of a slightly different, later construction.
