Description
The coach house at Stuckenduff, located on Shore Road in Shandon, dates back to the earlier 19th century. It features a single and two-storey Italianate design that includes coach house, stables, and office buildings. Currently uninhabited and in poor condition, the building has a rectangular plan with two projecting wings that form an inverted F-plan, along with a campanile tower and glasshouses.
The northeast elevation has an advanced single-storey lean-to block on the outer left, with three bays to the right return. There are two windows symmetrically arranged and a door in the inner right bay. The main rectangular-plan block to the right has hoist doors, while the advanced block to the right features a broad bracketed gable with two slender windows symmetrically placed at ground level and a louvred window at the centre of the gablehead. There are three doors on the left return, which are panelled with a fixed six-pane rectangular fanlight, and a similar arrangement on the right return. Lean-to glasshouses are built in the re-entrant angle to the right, now infilled with louvred doors. The three-stage campanile tower to the right includes string courses, an oculus, an eaves band, and a piended roof.
The southeast elevation has a low, flat-roofed lean-to bay on the outer left, with a single-storey gabled block in the penultimate bay to the left that has a door at the centre and the campanile rising behind it. To the right is a two-storey block with gabled dormerheads and a broad, unpainted gable. The windows are symmetrically arranged at ground level, while the outer right has a blank harled wall. The building features eight-pane sash and case windows and a grey slate roof, with square, coped wallhead and ridge stacks topped with lotus leaf cans.
A curving brick wall with a crenellated parapet is located to the west of the stables. Additionally, there is a rectangular-plan walled garden to the northeast of the stables, constructed of brick with ashlar saddleback coping, which has ruined glasshouses against its northeast wall.
