Notes
This plan has in the centre an entrance (framed on each side by a slender column) that gives on to a court or yard that accesses the five stalls to each side. Beyond is a room with a fireplace and two windows and a side room with one window. In front of this central block are two identical detached wings for coach houses, saddle and tack rooms, hay and two water closets.
