Details Former coach-house, now in residential use as flats. It was built in the early 20th century, probably on the site of earlier buildings, to serve the house to the northwest (NO39NE0125), which is now a hotel. It is a two-storey, three-bay, crowstepped Scots Baronial former coach-house, with an adjoining two-storey, three-bay house at the rear, at right angles to the coach-house. It is constructed from pink coursed granite with grey granite dressings. A string course divides the storeys, and there is a corbelled-out pepperpot turret to the southeast corner. The graded grey slate roof has a candle snuffer roof to the turret, gable end stacks and predominantly cast-iron rainwater goods with some decorative hoppers and lugbands. To the south is a central two-leaf timber door with ornamental hinges in a shallow segmental arch. The west elevation has a central six-panelled timber entrance door with a rectangular fanlight, flanked by bipartite windows with granite mullions. The central segmental pedimented dormerhead is flanked by bipartite gabled dormerheads breaking the eaves. There is a low, coped granite boundary rubble wall to the south, with a simple metal railing and interspersed with gable piers. To the east is a rubble coped wall.
