Description

Office Court at Broxmouth Park is a stable court from the late 18th century that was remodeled in 1841. It is constructed from red sandstone rubble with ashlar dressings and features some chamfered arrises. The building consists of two ranges and an additional cartshed, surrounding a cobbled court on sloping ground to the east of the main house.

The south range is a single-storey structure with a stepped gable at the west end, partly harled. It has altered and irregular openings on the north and south elevations, with a regular three-bay bothy at the south end. Some flagstones remain on the interior, which has been converted for various uses and is currently used only for storage. Some roof slates are still present.

The east range is a two-storey gabled structure that was raised from a single storey in 1841 and has been recently converted. It features a pointed Gothic window inserted in the south gable, which is in a former semi-circular archway that is now blocked and has Y-traceried glazing.

The court elevation is divided into three sections. At the center, there is a timber lintelled cartshed opening with modern garage doors and a former hayloft door above that has been blocked and converted to a window, flanked by additional windows. To the outer right are two semi-circular archways with boarded doors and two windows above. On the outer left, there is a fanlit doorway, a bipartite window, and a single window at ground level, with irregularly grouped windows above.

The rear elevation is mostly blank, featuring a tall ground floor window to the right of center and three small first-floor windows. It has small-pane glazing and grey pantiles, with some slates retained on the north pitch. There are ridge and gable end stacks.

The north cartshed consists of a stepped ashlar single-storey bay set in a rubble boundary wall, featuring two semi-circular coach openings and a wide gabled projection behind to the north with a single window in the gable end. There is a segmentally arched lower opening flanking the left side of the court, along with boarded doors.
