Description

The former stables located to the north of Monk Coniston Hall are now used as a service building. They likely date from the 18th century or early 19th century and are constructed of roughcast with a hipped slate roof. The building is two storeys high and has three bays, with the central bay projecting forward under a gable.

On the ground floor, the second bay features a casement window with rounded upper angles, while the third bay has a round-headed window that is sashed and includes intersecting glazing bars and horns. The first floor has a central pitching eye and lunettes with intersecting glazing bars in the end bays. The first bay contains a round-headed entrance with a fanlight that has intersecting glazing bars, and the second bay has an entrance with rounded upper angles leading to a part-glazed nine-panel door.

The right return of the building has three casement windows on the ground floor and two pointed windows on the first floor. The rear of the building faces the hall and is made of stone. A weather vane is present, and there is an entrance to the first floor level on the left return. Inside, the building features chamfered members in the collar and tie beam trusses. The property is owned by The National Trust.
