Description

The stables, screen wall, and gateway at Cranford Hall are likely from the 18th century, with some alterations made in the 19th century. They are constructed from coursed limestone rubble with ashlar dressings and feature Collyweston stone slate roofs, along with stone ridge and end stacks. The layout consists of south and west blocks forming an L-plan, which are connected by a wall to the north block. This wall has a gateway designed as a 4-centred arch with a cornice above, supported by buttresses.

At both ends, the gable ends of the north and south stable blocks are topped with coped gables and pointed finials. Each block contains a 2-light mullioned window with a hood mould, and the ground floor features a 3-light mullioned and transomed window with a hood mould. Facing the courtyard, the north block has a central segmental-headed carriage opening with a board door and a round-headed overlight to the left, along with a small-paned casement window and a similar door to the right. The west block includes three small-paned casement windows with matching doors on either side, plus a gabled dormer. The south block features a stable door to the left, followed by three segmental-headed carriage doorways and a blocked door that has been converted into a window on the right. The interiors have not been inspected. This structure is included for its group value.
