GV II

Coach house and stables. Probably late C18, enlarged in the late C19. Roughly
squared and coursed stone with cob to first floor. Corrugated-iron cladding to front
and corrugated-iron roof, gable-ended to front and back. Late C19 additions of
uncoursed stone rubble with some red-brick dressings and gable ended Welsh slate
roofs.
Plan and development: Former coach house to right, gable-ended to front and back
(facing south). Blocked doorways in side walls. The building possibly served
another function, possibly formerly stables. Probably converted into coach house
when 2 ranges of stables were added at right angles to left in the late C19. One
storey and loft with one-storey stable ranges.
Exterior: gable end to front has boarded loft door with C19 red-brick dressings, and
wide ground-floor entrance with wooden frame. Small narrow ground-floor vents in
left-hand side wall, with stone lintels. Rear gable end has first-floor C19 three-
light mullioned wooden window with wooden lintel, inserted in former loft doorway
(see straight joints and projecting stones as steps). Ground-floor boarded door to
left with wooden lintel and 3 small ground-floor vents with stone lintels, left-hand
one blocked and right-hand one partly blocked. Part of rear corner rebuilt (see
straight joints). Late C19 stables have boarded doors with wooden lintels and
inserted windows.
Interior: Blocked ground-floor side doorways with splayed jambs. Narrow vents also
with spalyed jambs. Loft supported on cross beams.
