Description
The stables located to the rear of Lewes House are a stable block that has been converted into offices. They were built in the late 18th century and are constructed of red brick with blue headers. The building features a slate half-hipped roof and is a single storey. It includes a former hay-loft in the center and at the left end. The central pediment-gable is topped with an octagonal louvred cupola that has an octagonal slate roof and a finial. The windows are arranged irregularly, with two glazing bar sashes on the left and seven on the right, all featuring segment heads. There is a blocked arch to the left with a wooden door and two large casements at the extreme left. Above, there is a half-hipped semi-dormer. The hay-loft opening beneath the pediment-gable is part-glazed and part-planked, and there is a planked door to the right. A brick pier attached to the north matches another pier to the south of Lewes House.
