The Old Barn

This complex comprises a coach house, a clocktower, and an old barn, forming an L-shaped service range dating from the 18th century. The buildings are primarily of red brick construction with sandstone dressings and economical slate roofs, featuring dentilated eaves.

The main block, facing northeast, is two storeys and eleven bays, divided into a five-bay coach house section to the left and a five-bay stable section to the right, with the three-story clocktower occupying the central bay. The coach house has square windows on a squat first floor, with plain sandstone surrounds and modern casements. It features four wide, depressed-arched carriage openings with brown brick voussoirs, dividing piers, limestone keystones and imposts, and modern boarded doors. A standard entrance with a flat limestone lintel and boarded door is located to the far left.

The clocktower has a reused Tudor-arched Jacobean entrance with chamfered and moulded jambs, an incorporated plaque bearing an indistinct Latin inscription, and a moulded pediment. Modern glazed doors are present. Ground-floor windows feature similarly reused Jacobean cross-windows, from which the mullions and transoms have been removed. The clocktower itself is three stages high, slightly advanced to the front and rear, and of rectangular plan. It has coped and kneelered gables to the front and rear, and a square, wooden cupola-type bellcote with arched openings on each face and a swept pyramidal slate roof surmounted by an iron weathervane. A depressed, chamfered-arched entrance on the ground floor has a recessed, ribbed and boarded door. Above this, a Coade stone oval tablet, dated 1803, is set within a chamfered recess. The tablet is inscribed with 'Coade and Sealy, London' and features a wheatsheaf emblem in relief. A two-light transomed window on the first floor has a heavily-moulded label continued to the sides and returned, with a modern casement. A circular clockface of slate, with a moulded sandstone surround, is set in the gable apex.

Adjoining the main block to the southwest and at a right angle is the Old Barn. Constructed similarly, its eastern gable has been extended to connect with the main block. It has a depressed-arched ground-floor opening with modern casement windows, flanked by further, similar windows. Above is a large, glazed sandstone oculus, and above that, an inset, carved stone date plaque dated 1863. Modern single-story lean-to and catslide additions are present on the long northwest side, along with modern catslide dormers in the roof. A large, squat mid-19th century brick chimney, of two stages with a plain cornice band, adjoins the Old Barn to the southwest. The Old Barn is partly screened by a low modern brick wall.
