Description

Originally a stable block, they are now converted into a range of dwelling houses. It is two storeys with parapet and cornice and both east and west fronts have similar fenestration. There is a 1:4:1:4:1 window range of double-hung sashes with glazing bars and segmental heads on the first storey and bar and transom casements on the ground storey of the west front. The end and centre bays, of one window range, break forward slightly with rusticated brick quoins and the centre bay is pedimented with an elliptical archway on the ground storey. The end bays have doorways with pilasters and cornices. A raised brick band extends across the fronts between the storeys. The roof is tiled, hipped at the north and south ends, with a central clock tower with an open cupola surmounted by a dome. <1> See: <2>
