Description
Rubble stone boundary walls to courtyard, built c.1770, enclosing ranges of buildings c.1870. Two ranges of stables to the south and east and two open sided ranges to the north and west. Single-pitched slate roofs. Cast-iron columns to open sided ranges. Fixed timber windows and timber battened doors to ranges of buildings. Outbuildings to site.
Appraisal
These stables form part of an interesting group of demesne related structures with Headfort House, outbuildings, gate lodges, bridge and demesne walls. Set within walls which were built in the eighteenth century, the ranges retain many interesting features and materials, such as the cast-iron columns and slate roofs.
