Description

Constructed of squared rubble stone with tiled roofs. They are in the form of a courtyard open to the main approach with single storey buildings, with gabled wings coming forward to the drive. The interior of the courtyard has post-1950 joinery and the building was clearly extensively altered losing all stable and coach doors etc. and having them replaced by standard windows. The exterior faces also have all 1950s joinery. There is one gable in the courtyard with a 4-light Tipping window and the two gable ends have 3-light ones. It is the contribution of these gables, matching those listed with the house on the other side of the entrance drive, which remains this building's principal importance which was apparently inspired by an arrangement of barns at Markenfield in Yorkshire.

The buildings have been extensively altered in the conversion from stables to school buildings etc.
