Description
The former stable block to Broomhead Hall, which also includes farm buildings, dates from around 1831 and is constructed of ashlar sandstone on the facade, with coursed, squared sandstone elsewhere. The roofs are primarily stone slate, although some areas at the rear have been covered with 20th-century concrete tiles. This U-shaped range features an elaborate castellated facade that faces the site of the now-demolished house.
The building is mostly two storeys high, with the main facade consisting of five symmetrical bays. At the center, there is a two and a half storey tower that includes a tall cart entrance with a chamfered Tudor arch and a continuous dripmould above it. On the first floor, there is a three-light chamfered mullion window with arched lights and a hoodmould that has decorative stops. Below the projecting embattled parapet, there is a large square uncarved block.
The single-storey flanking bays have a plinth, with doors at the outer ends and two sash windows. The outer bays are two-storey and feature paired cart entrances with chamfered Tudor-arched openings and a dripmould. Above these entrances are two-light windows similar to those in the tower, with quatrefoil vents above them. The building displays moulded and stepped kneelers and gable copings.
To the rear left, there is an L-shaped range that includes a cowhouse and a former barn, which has a tall cart archway with voussoirs and a keystone, flanked by doors and windows. Circular dressed pitching holes are present for the lofts. Inside the stable block to the right of the tower, there are tiled floors and decorative ironwork on the stalls. An outshut at the rear left of the stable block is not of special interest.
