Description
The stable block, now used as garages, storage, and staff accommodation, was built around 1870 for Lord James Douglas. It features brick construction in Flemish bond with ashlar dressings and a Welsh slate roof.
The building is divided into four sections. The two-storey former coach house on the right has a ground floor with four bays, including a round-headed doorway in the second bay, a 2-light window to the left, and two segmental carriage arches to the right. The first floor has three 12-pane sash windows set in raised alternating-block surrounds. The central section is single-storey with four bays and has boarded double doors, along with a continuous 20th-century dormer in the roof. The higher section to the right includes a high segmental carriage arch leading to a through passage, with three hipped half dormers above.
The building has a gabled roof, and the outer sections are adorned with elaborate decorative bargeboards. There are four tall ridge stacks, and a lower addition on the right features a hipped roof. The stable block is included for its group value.
