Description
The Coachhouse and Stables at Forglen House, built around 1840, features a quadrangular plan. It includes an entrance pend with a tower and haylofts, constructed with harled walls and Turriff sandstone margins.
On the north elevation, there is a central two-stage tower with a segmental-arched vehicular pend. Above this, a window is set beneath an ashlar hoodmould, and the gable is pedimented, adorned with an armorial plaque and a die finial. Flanking the tower are two-bay ranges with windows at ground level, one of which has been replaced by slapping on the left side, while boarded hayloft windows sit just below the eaves.
The south elevation comprises the stables, featuring windows and modern slappings at ground level, with loft doors on the first floor that break the eaves in gabled dormerheads. The courtyard includes round-arched cart-arches, with a cottage located to the east and west.
Inside, the stable range contains stalls on the east side and loose boxes on the west. It features boarded trevises with cast-iron railings and ball finialled hind posts, along with blue hexagonal tiles above the hay-hecks. The building is fitted with sash and case windows that have a 12-pane glazing pattern. The roof is covered with grey slates, and the building has ashlar coped skews and stacks.
