Stable Block, Murraythwaite House

The Stable Block at Murraythwaite House has several building phases, with its core dating back to around 1766. This two-storey, four-bay structure has seen additions throughout the 19th century, culminating in modifications made in 1902 by Sir Reginald Blomfield. The building features a symmetrical design typical of country houses, with full-height flanking wings and a plain long west wing. It is primarily constructed of rubble with ashlar dressings.

On the south elevation, the original house is rendered with ashlar margins and features an off-centre plain doorway, which is an alteration with re-set inscribed stones above. There are three pedimented dormers, likely added by Blomfield. The advanced flanking wings have been altered and heightened by Blomfield, showcasing canted full-height windows with pilastered mullions, a datestone, and clasping pilaster strips. A main cornice and blocking course runs across all elevations.

The north elevation presents a three-bay centerpiece, an early 19th-century addition to the main house's double-pile arrangement. It includes mid-19th-century inserted cross windows, paired in the outer bays, and a shallow advanced central entrance bay featuring what may be the original panelled door and a decorative fanlight, along with a brass doorbell possibly by Blomfield. The flanking steep-pitched wallhead gables each consist of two bays. Most windows are small-paned sashes, while dormers and cross windows are casements. The building has corniced stacks and piended slate roofs. The west wing, also designed by Blomfield, is two storeys but lower, with asymmetrical elevations.

To the southwest, there is a U-plan stable block, with a courtyard flanked by rusticated piers. The south range includes garages, and there are glasshouses located further to the south.
