Laundry, Stable Range And Adjoining Garden Walls At Thorpe Malsor Hall

The laundry, stable range, and adjoining garden walls at Thorpe Malsor Hall date from the late 18th century and early 19th century, with some 20th-century additions. The buildings are constructed from ironstone with limestone dressings and feature Welsh slate roofs.

The northeast end includes a two-bay laundry with a coped stone gable stack. The east front has a six-panel door with wooden jambs on the right, flanked to the left by two three-light casements. Above these, there are two six-over-six sash windows. The rear of the laundry has two round barred ventilators and above them, two six-over-six barred sashes. All rectangular openings have flat arches.

The lower two-story stable range is L-shaped and consists of 11 bays. On the east side, there is an off-centre carriage entrance with a segmental head. To the left of this entrance are two carriage openings with segmental heads and double doors, which are covered by an early 20th-century glazed canopy supported by iron posts. Further along, there are four doors and four semicircular iron casements. Beyond these, there is another carriage opening with a segmental head and a gabled wing. To the right, there is another carriage opening with a segmental head and double doors, followed by a semicircular iron casement flanked by single doors. Further along, there is a three-light leaded casement and a two-leaf door, both with flat arches. Above this section, there is a near-central square pitch hole flanked on the left by six round ventilators and on the right by four similar ventilators, with two pitch holes beyond that, both featuring flat arches.

The rear elevation has a mix of casements, square pitch holes, and round ventilators. To the west, there is an adjoining ironstone garden wall, which is raised in brick to the west and has an inner brick leaf to the north, topped with gabled slab coping. The lower south wall is curved and features gabled tile coping. The overall plan of the complex is approximately rectangular, measuring 150 meters long by 60 meters wide.
