What is recorded here
Detached nine-bay single- and two-storey stable building, c.1850, on a symmetrical plan retaining original aspect comprising nine-bay two-storey block with single-bay two-storey projecting entrance bay to centre having square-headed carriageway, and four-bay single-storey lean-to flanking infill ranges. Hipped slate roof on a T-shaped plan (lean-to to flanking infill ranges) with clay ridge tiles, rendered chimney stack, rendered coping, and cast-iron rainwater goods on rendered eaves. Unpainted rendered walls. Square-headed window openings with no sills, and timber fittings. Square-headed door openings with timber boarded sliding doors. Square-headed carriageway with timber boarded double doors. Set back from road in grounds shared with Mount Congreve.
A well-composed substantial stable building of solid form and massing, which retains its original form, and most of its original fabric. The stable block forms the centrepiece of a group of ancillary structures in the Mount Congreve estate, which are collectively of significance attesting to the disparate activities undertaken in the maintenance of a large-scale estate.
