Description
The stable block to Howsham Hall dates from the 1770s and is built of brick in Flemish bond with a Westmorland slate roof. It features stables, barns, and accommodation arranged around a central square yard. The building is two storeys high with seven bays, and the central bay has a pediment that breaks forward. The former entrance, now blocked, includes a Tuscan portico with a four-panel door flanked by fixed windows. The outer bays have sash windows with glazing bars and a band above. On the first floor, there is an oculus with a small fixed window above in the open pediment of the central bay, along with six-pane fixed windows in the outer bays. The eaves have a dentilled course. The roof is hipped, with a taller central section topped by a pyramidal roof that features a clock tower with a lantern and cupola. The south front has similar architectural features but a less elaborate central bay, which includes a re-sited datestone over the carriage arch that reads 1676 and a re-sited sundial in the pediment dated 1750.
