Appraisal
This former coach house and stable complex to Anaverna House has been recently restored. The well-maintained building has a particularly pleasing courtyard with original cobblestones and attractive spoked fanlights to the doors. Its survival enhances the architectural character of the estate and completes the original site context to Anaverna House.
