Description
The Coach House and Stable at Cromalt, located at 148 Clyde Street East in Helensburgh, dates back to the early 19th century. This gabled, five-bay structure serves as a coach house, stables, and granary, featuring a cupola. It is constructed from cream sandstone rubble with ashlar dressings, showcasing raised margins, boarded doors, and quoin strips.
The west elevation, which serves as the entrance, has a taller gabled bay at the center. This bay includes a semi-circular-headed carriage arch with a granary opening above, all set within a slightly advanced panel that has a broken-pedimented gable, topped by a cupola. There are doorways on either side of the central bay. The end bays mirror the central bay's design, but one has a blocked door converted into a bipartite window on the right, with a glazed granary opening above. To the outer right, there is a single-storey, corniced, flat-roofed wing with a window in the center and a door on the return to the right (south). The cupola, which was replaced in 1991, is painted white and resembles a small circular temple on a square base, topped with a dome and weathervane finial.
On the north elevation, there is a window to the right, while the center and left feature a deep flat-roofed bow with a door facing west at the re-entrant angle. The building includes 12-pane sash and case windows as well as small-pane windows. The roof is covered with grey slate, and the skews are finished with ashlar coping.
