Description
The stable block north of Greystoke Castle is a late 18th century or early 19th century structure. It features pink sandstone ashlar walls with a string course, eaves modillions, and raised quoins. The roof is a graduated hipped design made of greenslate, with a rear catslide roof covered in Welsh slate. The building is recessed with two storeys and consists of five bays, flanked by two-bay projections. The left return wall has three bays, while the right return wall has five bays, creating a rough H-shape.
The central entrance is a Tudor-Gothic doorway, accompanied by windows, some of which have glazing bars. The projections also have similar doorways, which are partly blocked, and upper-floor windows. Between these projections are three large incised H's, which represent the Howard family. The return walls feature similar windows and doorways, with the left wall showcasing pointed-arched windows. A drawing from 1825 by Sir George Pococke depicts the rear of this building in a distant view of the castle.
