Little Court And Wall Closing Courtyard

Little Court and the wall closing the courtyard are stables that have been converted into a dwelling. They date from the early 19th century and were converted in the late 20th century. The building is designed in a Gothick style, featuring roughcast over rubble, hipped wings, and a gabled center with tetrahedrons on the kneelers, all topped with slate roofs. The center section is two stories tall, while the wings are single-story with attics, arranged in a 1:1:1 bay pattern. The windows include ogee-headed sashes and a large late 20th-century ogee-headed window with many panes inserted in the ground floor center, along with a circular opening at the apex of the gable and a string course below. There is a gabled dormer on the left return of the right wing, with an entrance below through a late 20th-century door. The building is surrounded by a square courtyard formed by a low random rubble wall without coping stones, which abuts the wings and sweeps down to a central late 20th-century gate (not included). This structure was originally built as the stables for Court House.
