Wynnstay Kennels (Including Valeting House and Attached Courtyard Buildings and Boundary Walls)

The building comprises Wynnstay Kennels, including a valeting house and associated courtyard buildings and boundary walls. Dating to the 18th century, the kennels were designed to house and exercise hounds on the ground floor, with sleeping accommodation for staff on the first floor.

The main range has a symmetrical two-storey front elevation constructed of red brick in Flemish bond, set on a sandstone plinth, with vermiculated rusticated quoins and a stone moulded cornice. A slate roof is surmounted by a bell cupola. The façade has nine bays, with the central bay projecting slightly. A double recessed arch rises the full height of the building and is surrounded by vermiculated rustication, culminating in a pediment. The ground floor has nine windows; the two at the extreme left are false, while the remaining windows are cast-iron, containing 30 panes. The second floor has six windows with 30-pane cast-iron frames, along with two letting-in doors. The right-hand return elevation features a double recessed blind arch. The rear elevation, facing the courtyard, appears to have been raised.

The enclosed courtyard at ground level contains three yards bounded by stone walls with iron railings and gates, designed as exercise areas for the hounds. These yards have direct access to the hounds' lodging rooms in the main range via three doorways. A single-storey feed house is constructed of brick and stone, with a hipped slate roof and ventilation provision. Its courtyard-facing elevation has a centrally placed eight-pane sash window flanked by doors. At the eastern corner is a single-storey lodging house, now painted white, with a hipped slate roof and a 30-pane cast-iron window. This separate lodging also has a separate enclosed run bounded by a stone wall with iron railings and a gate.

The valeting house is a two-storey red brick structure with a sandstone plinth, rusticated stone quoins, and a hipped slate roof. It is six bays long, with the bay furthest to the right being a later extension in a matching style. The central bay is pedimented and emphasized by quoins, and features a weathered stone shield, which likely once displayed the Wynn Arms. It has 20-pane cast-iron windows on both floors and a central letting-in door.

The valeting house and main range are linked by a red brick wall containing a vermiculated rusticated doorway leading into the courtyard.

Later alterations to the main range reveal evidence of a large stack, likely marking the former location of a boiling-house. The valeting house retains ground drainage channels.
