Full description

Department of Environment, 1989, Beaford, 21 (List of Blds of Arch or Historic Interest). SDV321165.

Coach house and stables approx 10m west of Upcott Barton. Probably late C18, enlarged in the late C19. Roughly squared and coursed stone with cob to first floor. Corrugated iron cladding to front and corrugated iron roof, gable ended to front and back. Late C19 additions of uncoursed stone rubble with some red brick dressings and gable ended welsh slate roofs.
Plan and development: former coach house to right, gable ended to front and back (facing south). Blocked doorways in side walls. The building possibly served another function, possibly formerly stables. Probably converted into coach house when two ranges of stables were added at right angles to left in the late C19. One storey and loft with one storey stable ranges.
Exterior: gable end to front has boarded loft door with C19 red brick dressings and wide ground floor entrance with wooden frame. Small narrow ground floor vents in left hand side wall with stone lintels. Rear gable end has first floor C19 3-light mullioned wooden window with wooden lintel, inserted in former loft doorway. Ground floor boarded door to left with wooden lintel and three small ground floor vents with stone lintels, left hand one blocked and right hand one partly blocked. Part of rear corner rebuilt. Late C19 stables have boarded doors with wooden lintels and inserted windows.
Interior: blocked ground floor side doorways with splayed jambs. Narrow vents also with splayed jambs. Loft supported on cross beams.
