What is recorded here

Detached nine-bay single-storey over basement former stables, built c.1780, with projecting porches, now in use as country house. Carved limestone piers enclose central five bays between porches. Hipped slate roof. Ashlar limestone walls with string courses and dressings. Timber sash windows with stone sills. Timber glazed double doors with fanlight and sidelights. Limestone kerbing to site.
This former stable building is now in use as a country house and is an interesting change of use. The stables are of apparent architectural form and the projecting porches with their carved limestone detailing enliven the entrance façade of the building. The stables retain many interesting features and materials, such as the timber sash windows and slate roof. The decoratively painted central five bays of the entrance façade is an unusual feature of the building.
