Description
The stable block and pigeon house at Plas Coch is a large structure built from rubble stone, featuring larger quoins and bullnose brick dressings, topped with a slate roof that is hipped to the right. At the center, there is an open wooden cupola that holds a single bell and a weathervane. The original door openings have been fitted with replaced doors. On the left side facing the house, there is a doorway with an overlight, followed by four doorways and a window. Further to the right is an addition to the original building, constructed in the third quarter of the 19th century, which includes a single doorway and window.
On the left end, the loft features a small-pane window, two shuttered openings, and an oculus flanked by dated tablets and the initials 'RL'. There are also two smaller oculi set back further to the right. The right gable end has the brick base of a former water tank. A vertical joint in the rear wall indicates the two main phases of construction. To the right of this joint, the rear includes doorways at both ends, flanking two rear windows that have original cast iron sliding vents above which are two loft doors, with the left-hand door having a renewed brick threshold.
Inside, the walls have ledges designed for nesting pigeons.
