Presbytery And Attached Stable

The presbytery and attached stable, dated 1695 and remodeled in the early 19th century, is a house and stable located in Thornton Steward. The building is constructed of roughcast rubble with Welsh slate roofs. The house features two storeys and three bays, with an ashlar plinth and rusticated quoins. A cement porch is situated in front of a central part-glazed door, which has a moulded surround and a date displayed in a Baroque scroll above the lintel. The sash windows, which have glazing bars, are set in moulded stone surrounds. The building also has paired modillion gutter brackets, copings, and ashlar end stacks, along with a projecting chimney breast on the left return. Inside, there is a contemporary staircase with thick turned balusters. The single-storey stable and coach-house on the left includes a part-glazed, part-shuttered window, a stable door, and a segmental-arched coach door.
