The Rookery and Stoke Hall Cottages

The Rookery and No 2 (Stoke Hall Cottages) is a former stable block that has been converted into two dwellings, dating from the mid-18th century. It is constructed from coursed squared gritstone set on a shallow plain plinth, with ashlar dressings, quoins, and coped gables at the rear. The building features a hipped stone slate roof with ashlar sidewall stacks and is arranged in a 'U' shape around three sides of a courtyard.

The facade consists of five bays, with two and three-storey towers that slightly project from the main two-storey range. The first and fifth bays contain glazing bar sash windows, while the second and fourth bays have doorways. The central bay features wide 20th-century garage doors. A band course at the first floor level is adorned with five blind recessed semi-circular arches that form the heads of the door and window bays below. Above this, a broad band course supports the towers, each featuring a glazing bar frame with a flush stone surround, topped with a moulded cornice and pyramidal roofs.

Connecting the towers is a parapet balustrade, which has clusters of turned stone balusters between sections of masonry parapet and balusters positioned below the tower windows. The doorways are framed with plain stone surrounds and have six-panelled doors with shallow overlights.
