Stable And Dovecot, About 20 Metres North West Of Fairfield House

The stable and dovecot, located about 20 metres northwest of Fairfield House, dates from the late 18th century. The stable is constructed of blue lias random rubble, while the dovecot is made of brick with an irregular banc and has a rendered facade facing the house. Both structures feature shallow pitch pantile roofs with coped verges and gabled sides on the dovecot.

The stable is a plain block with a two-storey dovecot situated above a central carriageway entrance. The facade facing the house has a layout of 2:1:2 bays, with large 19th-century transomed windows that have fixed upper lights and casements below. The carriageway entrance has a depressed arch with a brick arch and exposed quoins, and there is a round arch opening above. Access to the dovecot is provided by a lateral stair made of metal rods, and there is a basket arch opening to the pigeon loft featuring two lancet windows and a circular opening at the gable end. The rear elevation is unlit.

A wooden bell-cote with a lead roof and weathervane is present on the structure. Inside, the stable has a kingpost roof, while the dovecot retains its contemporary fittings, including nesting boxes and a potence.
