Cadw's description
Location
Located immediately to the rear of Galltfaenan Hall, facing the rear service court to the S.
History
Stable range, probably of the second-quarter C19 and built to serve Galltfaenan Hall.
Exterior
Rectangular stable block of limestone rubble with slate roof and tiled ridge; fine later C19 star-shaped brick chimney, with oversailing courses forming decorative cornice, contemporary metal louvre to centre. The range is of 5 bays with two boarded entrances each having a window to the R and a further, larger entrance to the far R. The windows have original unhorned, near-flush sashes, each of 36 panes; all openings have cambered heads with dressed limestone voussoirs. The larger right-hand entrance is boarded, as before and has a 12-pane rectangular overlight. The first two bays formerly had a pentice addition, a later C19 alteration, now gone. To the rear there is evidence of former cart/coach bays, now bricked up.
Reason for designation
Included for group value with Galltfaenan Hall.
