Description

Range of former stables to Greenhills House, built c.1780. Greenhills House does not survive. Eight-bay two-storey former stables with pitched corrugated-iron roof. Roughcast rendered walls with limestone eaves course. Diocletian window openings with cast-iron pivot windows and tooled limestone surrounds with keystone. Square-headed door openings with tooled limestone block-and-start surrounds. Two-storey outbuilding to north-west of former stables with pitched slate roof, coursed rubble walls and carriage arch openings. Additional single-storey outbuildings and farm buildings of former Greenhills House adjacent.

Appraisal

The former stables of Greenhills House are notable for the high quality workmanship displayed in the window and door surrounds. Though the stables are no longer in use, other outbuildings associated with the Greenhills estate are maintained and used.
