Description

Stable Cottage is a lofted former stable built of rubble stone, featuring larger quoins and a slate roof behind crow-stepped gables with a stone ridge stack located to the left of center. The east-facing front has a doorway that is offset to the right of center, with a stone lintel, and is flanked by two 4-light ovolo-moulded mullioned windows that have simple drip moulds. The loft area includes three 4-light openings, which are also offset to the right side and have wooden diamond mullions, now glazed.

To the left (downhill) gable end, there is a lower and narrower 19th-century porch with a castellated parapet. A boarded door, set under a wooden lintel, faces the front, and the side wall features an inserted window. The gable end of the main range has a cross window to the right of the porch, with loft windows centered and to the right, which have wooden mullions under concrete lintels that were inserted in the mid-20th century. The rear of the building has two windows, also inserted in the mid-20th century, with wood-mullioned windows equally placed in the upper storey but offset to the right in the lower storey, which features a porch offset to the left of center. This porch has a boarded door with a glazed panel in its side wall.

To the right (uphill) gable end of the main range, there is a lower 19th-century extension made of snecked stone and a slate roof behind a stepped gable. This extension has a doorway on the left side with a shallow segmental arch and a boarded door. Its gable end features a 4-light ovolo-moulded mullioned window with a drip mould. Set back against the right gable end is an added stable projection constructed of rubble stone and a slate roof behind coped gables, which has a wide doorway under a basket arch with rock-faced voussoirs. The rear of the 19th-century extension includes a single-storey gabled projection that is parallel with and attached to the added stable at the uphill end. This projection has a segmental-headed 4-light casement in the gable end and a boarded door under a stone lintel in the side wall. The rear of the loose box wing features a stepped gable and double ventilation strips below the apex. The property has not been inspected.
