Description

The stables of Glynde Place, located to the south-west of the house, were built by and likely designed by John Morris of Lewes for Dr. Richard Trevor, Bishop of Durham, between 1755 and 1760. The complex consists of two buildings arranged at right angles to each other, connected by a flanking wall. The building at the south-west corner of the house features a cobbled facade, with a stringcourse, long and short quoins, and brick window surrounds. It has a wooden eaves cornice and a roof made of slates in the front and Horsham slabs at the back. This building has nine casement windows with small square leaded panes facing south, along with two red brick doorways, and three windows facing east.

The second building is located across the carriage drive and is two storeys high with six windows. Its west side, facing the road, is faced with squared knapped flints, and it includes a stone stringcourse, eaves cornice, and window surrounds. The building features rusticated red brick quoins and a central carriage arch flanked by wide red brick pilasters topped with a brick pediment. It has a hipped slate roof and a shingled turret over the archway, which leans slightly to the south. The turret includes clock faces on the east and west sides and an octagonal cupola containing a bell, topped with a lead canopy and a gilded ball finial.
