Description

The Stable Block at Plas Power is a 19th-century building constructed from brick with stone dressings and features a slate roof supported by a moulded timber eaves cornice. It forms three sides of a courtyard lined with blue brick, with a small rear wing to the northwest that contains domestic accommodation above tack rooms.

The main range facing the courtyard entrance consists of five bays, each articulated with segmental arches set on plain brick pilasters, which are topped with a stone impost band. The outer arches feature glazed tympana, while the central doorway is adorned with an entablature supported by brackets. The advanced ranges on either side mirror this design, though the outer bays are narrower and contain doorways with overlights. The right-hand range includes one blind arch and another with double doors and a glazed overlight, while both arches in the left-hand range have full-height doors that fit into the heads of the arches.

Inside the main range, original stabling fittings are preserved, including hexagonal tiled walls with lined-out stucco above, boarded and iron-railed stall dividers, and blue brick flooring. The right-hand range contains loose boxes, while the left-hand range is open, likely serving as a coach house.
