Period
 

History
Built in the early C19 as part of the remodelling of the house and the erection of the walled garden and other structures at this time; the building is likely to have declined in importance after the construction of new stables for riding horses in c1880.  

Exterior
2-storey rectangular plan building, aligned north-west to south-east. Roughly coursed rubblestone blocks, slate hung to rear; slate roof. Front has 3 eaves windows, left and centre C20 2-light casements, right a C19 12-paned sash, but all in their roughly square original openings. Wide double doors to left on ground floor with tall fixed-light 12-paned window and boarded door under narrow rectangular overlight to centre, all with large stone lintels. Right gable end has steps to first floor with substantial lean-to hood over doorway.  

Interior
First floor has A-frame trusses with high collars; evidence of former partitioning for grooms' accommodation.  

Reason for designation
Included as a well-preserved early C19 stables/coach house, having strong physical and functional association with the house and other structures at Plas Tirion.
