Description

The stables and offices at Biggar Park consist of two parallel long rectangular buildings made of rubble with contrasting yellow ashlar dressings and slate roofs. The northern range, built first, likely dates from the late 18th century, as it appears on an 1813 estate plan. This two-storey structure has a loft space beneath the eaves and features four regularly spaced bays with three entrance doors and square loft openings, two of which are blind with a painted 6-pane glazing pattern. There are five additional openings at ground level, though not all are original. The building has axial roof ventilators and contains stabling. The east gable has been altered, featuring a blocked wide archway, which may have originally been a coach-house, and a two-compartment pigsty attached.

The southern range is taller and has two storeys with lower flanking wings. It was likely built around 1850, as it does not appear on the 1813 map. The two-storey section has 12-pane sash and case windows and a deep eaves band. Its five-bay front elevation includes a three-bay centre with a door (featuring two-leaf doors and a rectangular fanlight), suggesting it was partially used for domestic purposes from the beginning. Adjoining this is a two-bay range that includes a twin-arched coach-house at ground level and two windows above, with a forestair at the rear providing access to the upper floors. This section may have been raised from a single storey. Where the two-bay low wing adjoins, an entrance doorway has been created next to a blocked opening. The glazing of the surviving south-facing window of this wing resembles that of the main house front and flanks, indicating it may be of similar age. The west wing features a pair of garage doorways in its gable, along with skews, stacks, and a weather vane finial.
