Description

The enclosing walls to the rear meadow at Nerquis House are a late 18th-century former coach-house and cart-house, with adjacent piggeries to the north. The structure is built of rubble with sandstone ashlar facing, and the coach and cart houses have slate roofs. The coach house section on the left features a gabled roof with tile coping and plain kneelers, and has two large entrances with depressed-arched heads and chamfered reveals, now fitted with modern boarded double-doors. To the right, the former cartshed steps down and has four plain-arched openings with projecting keys to their depressed heads, although the outer openings are partly bricked-up. The south gable end has later buttressing and a rebuilt brick upper section, while the rear pitch of the roof is covered with corrugated iron.

To the south of the cart-house is a contemporary open gateway made of rubble with rough-dressed stone quoins and capping, some of which is lost. This gateway leads into a walled enclosure that runs behind the coach and cart range in a rough square and ends with a modern gate in the northwest corner. The wall is constructed of rubble with stone capping, stepped up at the northeast corner, and is partly collapsed to the north.

Adjoining the coach-house on the left is a series of pig-sties forming a rough L-shape. These have depressed-arched entrances leading to a coped and stone-faced brick wall, and a mono-pitched roof at the rear, which is now mostly collapsed and served the brick sties.

To the south, there is a dwarf rubble wall that ends at the junction with the northeast corner of the stable range, where it features a pair of plain stone gate-piers with conical capping. The plain late 18th-century wrought iron gates remain in place.
