Description
The coach house, now a farm building, dates from 1761 and is located to the west of Temple Farmhouse in West Witton. It is constructed of coursed stone with ashlar dressings and features a stone slate roof. The building is single storey.
On the east elevation, there are chamfered quoins on the right side. The coach opening has an ashlar surround with imposts and a fluted "D" J F keystone inscribed with the year 1761. To the right of this opening, there is a part-shuttered window also in an ashlar surround. The roof has shaped kneelers and ashlar copings.
The right return, which faces the road, features chamfered quoins. There is a central boarded door in a surround with a plain frieze cornice, and directly above it is a blind tympanum with a surround and a fluted keystone. Above this, there are six pigeon-holes in the gable. The coach house is believed to have been built when Temple Farmhouse was used partly as a hostelry, and it is noted that hounds were kennelled there.
