Coach House

This is a 17th century lofted coach house constructed from local rubble masonry with sandstone dressings. It features a gabled roof covered in old small slates, which are partly grouted, along with clay ridge tiles, tiled copings, and a tall brick chimney at the southeast corner. The main facade faces south towards the house and includes three coach bays on the right (east) side, which have ashlar surrounds and openings with segmental-arched voussoir heads, fitted with modern boarded double doors. On the left (west), there are external stone stairs with a dog-kennel underneath and a parapet wall with stone coping. These stairs lead to a modern half-glazed doorway, with 12-pane lights above each cart bay on the right (east), featuring openings with shallow elliptical voussoir heads. The gable returns are similarly detailed; on the east side, there is a blocked doorway to the left (south), a single small-paned first floor light, and a circular window at the gable apex. On the west side, there is a wide boarded door and a small-paned casement window on the first floor, with the upper part of the gable apex slate-hung, obscuring the circular light in the gable apex. The rear (north) elevation consists of three bays, with the central bay having a gable that breaks the eaves line, dressed kneelers, copings, and a circular light in the gable apex. The openings are similarly detailed, with the first floor featuring four 12-pane lights and the ground floor having a larger 16-pane light at the right (west) end.
