Stables. C17. Red, mainly English bond brick with a plain tile roof. Two storeys.
East front: red brick with blue brick diapering. C19 openings. To the ground floor at right are a blocked doorway with cambered splayed head holding a C20 two-light window to its upper body. To either side are windows of two lights with cambered splayed heads. At left was a similar balancing arrangement of doorway and lateral windows now all blocked. To the top of the wall at centre are two oval pitching eyes with grilles. To the roof at right are two hipped dormer loft doors with clapboarded sides. The right hand gable end has diapered diamond patterns and a cambered-headed stable door at left and above this at right a rectangular loft door with ashlar sill. Band of three bricks depth below the shaped gable which has brick kneelers and concave sides divided from the arched apex by a further band of three bricks depth. Cross-shaped breather to the apex. Left hand gable end similar save that it has no diapering and only one window opening to ground floor right.
Rear: two ground floor doorways at right and a rectangular loft door to the first floor at right with scarred brickwork showing it to have originally fallen lower.
Interior: Ground floor divided into cow byre, harness room and stables. Stables at south end has chamfered cross-beams with straight cut stops and axial beams with cyma stops. Small harness room at centre with matchboarded walls. Byre at north end with four chamfered cross-beams with ogee stops. Fine C17 roof structure of five main bays with intermediate trusses between the main queen-post trusses, the jowled queen-posts have curved braces to cambered collars and curved braces to square-set purlins; the purlins are staggered and tenoned to intermediate principal rafters which have collars and an upper tier of staggered tenoned purlins clasped between the common rafters and collars above the queen-post trusses. The common rafter couples are halved at their apexes. The roof is intact, except that the queen-post truss at the south end has been removed.
