Description
This outbuilding, coach house, and stables, likely dating from the 18th century, was altered around 1833 and converted to part-residential and part-office use in the late 20th century. It has a near-symmetrical U-shaped stable courtyard. The central element is a two-story, three-bay former coach house, now a private residence, with single-story wings connecting it to single-story with attic and two-story gabled projecting ranges on either side. The construction is primarily harl-pointed sandstone rubble with sandstone dressings, some rendered, and a red brick range to the left. The openings have long and short surrounds and projecting cills.
The north-west elevation (the main entrance front) features a three-bay block at the center with a modern timber door, and infilled and glazed former cart openings to either side. First-floor windows are aligned above. An ogee-capped, circular ridge vent or former dovecot is centered above, topped by a wind vane. A two-bay wing sits to the left, with single windows in each bay. A gabled projection extends to the outer left, with an exterior staircase leading to a timber-panelled door on the first floor, flanked by single windows; a circular opening is at the apex, and a tapering finial tops the gable. A single window is centered in the wing to the right of the coach house. Another gabled projection extends to the outer right, with a single attic window at the center.
The south-east (rear) elevation has a three-bay former coach house at the center with single windows to the outer left and right, and a first-floor window above. A single-story, three-bay range stretches to the right, with a two-leaf boarded timber door in the left bay, a small single window in the center, and a partly boarded single window in the right bay. A single-story, five-bay range sits to the left of the center, containing a square-headed door at the center, flanked by single windows, a single window in the right bay, and a boarded timber stable door in the left bay.
Most windows are replacements with 12 panes of timber, although some original sash and case windows remain. Modern rooflights are also present. The roofs are covered in grey slate, with a corniced ridge stack on the north-east side, for which the cans are missing.
The interior has been converted for residential and office use, with some stables remaining. Cobbled courtyard. The courtyard is enclosed by coped sandstone walls, and flanked by stop-chamfered, square-plan sandstone gatepiers, from which the gates have been removed. Several ancillary single-story structures are located to the west, constructed of harl-pointed rubble and red brick with polychrome dressings, and all have grey slate, piended roofs.
