Description

The stables of Plas Newydd are a Grade II listed building, designed in a symmetrical, castellated, and turreted style that reflects a picturesque Gothick aesthetic. The structure features a central entrance block with three arches, flanked by two three-bay ranges that rise to terminal pavilions. These elements are highlighted by circular angle turrets topped with embattled caps. The building is constructed from limestone ashlar, complete with a plinth, a cornice band, and an embattled parapet, all beneath shallow-pitched slate roofs.

The entrance block showcases a two-storey central bay with a steep embattled gable, which is accentuated by a pronounced hood mould. This gable is framed by octagonal turrets topped with ogee domes. The ground floor includes an arched coach-way, featuring a flat-arched entrance-way inset, balanced by similar blind arches that contain arched windows and oculi in the adjacent bays. Above, a blind arch on the second storey displays four lancet panels, with a clock face positioned at its apex.

The flanking ranges each have a four-centred door on either side of the circular turrets, accompanied by two arched traceried windows with hood moulds. The raised end pavilions are distinguished by tall, three-tier Perpendicular-style traceried pointed-arch windows, also with hood moulds. At the rear, return wings enclose a stable yard, with the southern wing incorporating domestic offices that feature inserted windows on the southern front, along with two limestone chimney stacks. A paved stone carriage-way runs beneath the arch.

The interior of the building has been modernised.
