Description
This is a mid-18th century stable building with alterations from the early 19th century. Constructed of red and vitreous brick, it was originally whitewashed. The building has a hipped roof covered in old tiles, with a pyramid roof over the central bay and a wrought iron weathervane in a Gothic style. It is arranged over two storeys and consists of nine bays. The central and end bays have shallow brick projections dating to the early 19th century, marked by a first-floor brick band course and carriage doors set within four-centred arches. Leaded casements are found on the first floor. The central projection is slightly deeper, featuring a castellated parapet and canted sides with flush-panelled doors set in pointed arches. Above each door is a small roundel with a quatrefoil window. The intermediate bays have leaded cross casements on the ground floor and paired leaded casements above, all with gauged segmental heads. The central bays on each side have tall, steeply pointed archways. A 20th-century paired leaded casement is located on the first floor between bays seven and eight.
