Description
This is a former coach house and stable complex, dating from the 18th century, situated at Coed Coch. The complex is arranged in an L-shape around a cobbled stable yard, with a 3-metre rubble wall enclosing the south and east sides. A rectangular former cart bay block sits in the southeast corner. The building is constructed from local limestone rubble with rough-dressed stone voussoirs, and has hipped slate roofs. There are plain, squat chimneys, one of which is rendered.
The shorter eastern wing served as the coach house. It has a symmetrical three-bay facade to the north, with a slightly projecting central bay topped by a pediment and a square wooden clock tower. The clock tower has painted clock faces on its lower stage and a slatted upper stage with a pyramidal roof. Each bay has a full-height round-arched recess with a continuous string course. The original central window is now blocked, while the flanking bays have wooden cross windows with projecting sills, exposed wooden lintels, and 20th-century glazing. The inner, south side of the coach house has a large, full-height segmental opening on the left and two lower cart bays on the right, fitted with boarded doors. Two six-pane windows are located above the lower entrances, under the eaves.
The long south wing originally housed the stables. The upper part of this wing has an entrance flanked by windows, with a further entrance and window to the left. The ground-floor openings have cambered heads with rough-dressed voussoirs and modern doors and windows. Four square windows are set into the upper floor, under the eaves, the northernmost of which retain their 19th-century six-pane sash glazing. A large blind oculus is positioned between the southern pair of windows. The lower third of this wing has been converted into a modern chapel, featuring four tall windows and a buttress-like bellcote at the eastern end. A short, single-storey hipped-roofed return extends to the east, with modern part-glazed doors and a 12-pane sash window. The rubble enclosing wall extends approximately 15 metres eastwards, reaching a height of around 3 metres, before turning northwards to terminate in a plain square pier opposite the coach house. The cart bay block in the inner southeast angle has a modern steel-framed door and windows facing inwards, and a cambered entrance with a boarded door facing outwards. A small, five-step rubble mounting block is situated on the inner side of the northern wall.
The interiors have been modernised.
