Description
The stables and coach house, built between 1899 and 1902 by Charles Dorman for James Manfield, a shoe manufacturer from Northampton, are located immediately northeast of the Manfield Orthopaedic Hospital. Constructed from dressed ironstone with a Portland stone arch, the building features timber gables and red brick at the rear and inside the courtyard. The roofs are covered with stone slate on the gable ends and plain tiles on the rear slopes.
The structure is arranged around three sides of a courtyard, with a garden wall on the southeast side and a carriageway on the southwest side. It is a single storey with lofts and has an asymmetrical facade with a bay arrangement of 1:4:1:2 on the southwest front. To the right of the center, there is an elliptical ashlar arch carriageway with a keystone and Tuscan columns, along with a timber frame first floor that features wooden corner columns and a jettied gable. To the left, there is a timber-frame gable and stone mullion windows with three and four lights. The right-hand end is hidden behind a service wing of the house. The northwest side includes wooden cross-mullion transom windows and a gabled loft doorway at the center with a hoist. Inside the courtyard, there is a brick wall with an ashlar elliptical arch carriageway and large semi-circular arch windows. The interior has not been inspected.
