Description

The stables, located approximately 70 meters to the north-north-west of Clifton Castle, date from around 1800. They are constructed of rubblestone and ashlar, featuring graduated stone slate and machine-tile roofs. The main south wing has a parallel wing to the north, connected by a wall on the east side.

The south front showcases a central two-storey, three-bay block flanked by one-storey, one-bay wings. To the left, there is a one-storey, three-bay block running in a south/north direction, while to the right, a pavilion also runs south/north. The central block has stable doors on the ground floor, each with a fanlight featuring radial glazing bars, set in semicircular-arched openings. The first floor includes a band and a central clock, flanked by 15-pane unequally-hung sash windows. The hipped roof is topped with an octagonal cupola supported by Doric columns, with a frieze, cornice, and hemispherical roof, complete with a weather vane. There is an end stack to the right.

The one-bay wings have stable doors similar to those in the central block. The three-bay block to the left features enlarged semicircular-arched openings with an impost band. The pavilion to the right has a round-arched casement window set in a larger relieving arch, also with an impost band, and a machine tile roof. All roofs are hipped.
