Notes
This design for a much larger stable block does not correspond with any of the previous stable designs. A central bay of two storeys with serliana-type entrance is flanked by single-storey wings of three bays with two projecting ranges forming a three-sided court. Each bay has a semi-circular window and is divided by simple pilasters.
New stables were built in 1810 at a cost of £1,195 15s 1d.
