Description
This building is a former coach-house and stables, now used as toilets and storage, located approximately 5 metres southwest of the George Inn. It is dated 1862 but likely dates from the early 19th century. The structure is made of coursed sandy limestone and features a graduated stone slate roof.
The building has a tall two-storey central bay flanked by lower single bays with lofts. The central bay has double doors made of boards, with dressed stone jambs and a four-centred arch that includes carefully matched voussoirs and possibly a rebuilt keystone with an incised date. Above this, there is a small circular pitching eye, flanked by slit vents. The roof is pyramidal and has the stump of a ball finial.
On the left side, there are two doors with plain jambs, and a square window located under the eaves, which has a frame that forms pigeon holes or ventilation in the lower half and two panes above. On the right side, there is a board door in a plain surround to the left, with the frame featuring sliding ventilators in the lower half and eight panes above.
