Description
The range of stables and barn located to the west of Flagg Hall dates back to 1681 and has been significantly extended and partly altered in the 19th century. It is constructed from coursed limestone rubble with gritstone dressings, featuring gritstone quoins and plinth copings on the original 1681 section. The roof is partly covered with modern concrete tiles and partly with stone slates, while the 19th-century section has stone copings with kneelers and a ball finial at the ridge of the south gable wall.
The building stands two storeys high, with a three-bay section from the 17th century and a four-bay section from the 19th century that includes two gabled dormers. On the east elevation, the southern three bays from the 17th century feature a partly blocked central archway with quoined edges and a voussoired semi-circular head, adorned with ashlar spandrels. Above this archway is a plaque inscribed with 'GD 1681', accompanied by a continuous moulded dripmould that steps over the spandrels and plaque. There is a shallow plinth on either side of the archway.
To the north, there is a 2-light recessed and chamfered mullion window, followed by an inserted stable door and another 3-light recessed and chamfered mullion window. To the south, a 19th-century door is flanked by 19th-century windows. Above the archway, there is a 3-light recessed and chamfered mullion window featuring 18th-century metal fenestration. To the south, there is a flush hayloft door that has been converted into a casement window, with an inserted door below it. Additionally, a door has been inserted into a former flush hayloft opening to the north.
Inside, the ground floor beams display double concave moulding with middle and side fillets. The roof structure consists of a double purlin system supported by queen post trusses, with wind braces extending to the highest purlins. The 19th-century section to the north includes central full-height doors, with quoined doorcases and windows on either side. Above, there are two hayloft doors situated in the dormers.
