Description

The former stable block at Faendre Hall is a building designed in the Gothic Revival style. It is constructed from stone rubble with ashlar dressings and features Welsh slate roofs that have high copings and apex finials. The building has an asymmetrical facade with two main linked wings that face a stable-tiled yard, while a lower wing on the left is accessed from the kitchen garden.

The stable wing on the left has a wide central bay topped with a shaped gable. This gable includes a boarded shaped hayloft opening on the first floor, and below it is a chamfered Tudor-arched doorway with a boarded door, flanked by chamfered rectangular lights. The metal armatures that once held opening casements are now missing their glazing. To the left of this bay are paired lights, and to the right is a similar arrangement that lights a separately roofed linking bay to the coach-house range. This range consists of two gabled bays with different designs, each featuring wide 4-centred arched openings. The left opening is wider and has a ventilation slit above it, while the right opening is slightly set back and has a cartouche above. Both bays retain their boarded doors, with the right door also featuring an overlight.

Attached to the left and stepped down is a garden wing that has a hipped roof with a ventilator and a brick segmental arched entrance. A stone wall with brick coping extends from this wing, enclosing the garden at the rear of the house.

Inside the coach-house, the original plastered ceiling and flag floor are still present.
