Description

Halsway Mews is a former stable building, now a dwelling, dating from around 1880 and altered in the mid-20th century. It is constructed of red sandstone random rubble with ashlar dressings and features a hipped plain tile roof with overhanging eaves that have sprockets, decorative ridge tiles, and a lead-roofed half-timbered cupola topped with a weather vane and decorative patterned tiles. The building is designed in the Norman Shaw style and stands two and a half storeys tall with irregular fenestration.

It has three gabled dormers with half-timbered gables, decorative tie beams, and bargeboards. The windows include 4-light ovolo moulded mullions with leaded lights, and there is a mid-20th century inserted three-light flat-roofed dormer to the right of center, along with another glazed opening to the left. The first floor features 24-pane sash windows in the outer bay to the left and another sash window to the right, set below a stone lintel with a keystone. There are two-tier sash windows with four by six by two panes in a rusticated stone surround, while the left side has similar glazing bars but not sash windows, and concrete surrounds that may have been added or renewed in the mid-20th century. The ground floor includes a three-light casement window in the outer bay to the right with a 20th-century concrete lintel next to French windows, and another glazed opening in the outer bay to the left.
