History
Mid C19 small coach-house and stable to a picturesque villa formerly known as The Gables, now divided into two houses, The Gables and Gable End, the coach-house now belonging to the latter. The Gables was probably built in 1847 as the lease dates from then and this building is contemporary, marked on a map of 1849 and mentioned in a sale advertisement 1876.
Exterior

Tudor-arched narrow loft door above, also with brick head. Range set back to left has had lean-to added in angle with stone left end wall, corrugated iron roof and double garage doors. Left gable end has Tudor-arched loft door above and square cambered-arched window beneath, both with red brick heads.
Reason for designation
