Description
The stables adjoining Hatch Court were built around 1820 and were undergoing restoration as of December 1984. They feature a combination of render over lias rubble and brick, with the entrance front stripped of render during the survey. The building has hipped slate roofs and is arranged in a courtyard plan next to Hatch Court to the south, with the entrance located on the west front.
The west front is two storeys high and consists of one main bay and three additional bays. The end of the stable wing has two blind openings, while there are square-headed blind openings flanking a semicircular-headed carriageway entrance, with a circular niche above it. On the courtyard side, single-storey pavilions with pyramid roofs and 24-pane sash windows flank the entrance. The north side of the stables has three square-headed stable doors, each flanked by 12-pane sash windows. The east side features four semicircular-headed openings, with square-headed openings in the outer bays and blind rectangular niches above.
The wall to the south fronts the courtyard of Hatch Court. Inside the stables on the north side, there are fittings and unusual shell-headed niches designed for hay baskets. An engraving by Collinson shows a building to the west of Hatch Court that is believed to be the original stables designed by Prowse, which were demolished around 1820.
