History
Plas Moel-y-Garnedd was built in mid C19 for a retired Head Ostler to Queen Victoria. Masonry break indicates that the Stables and Coach-house are of two periods, having been enlarged to right in later C19 - possibly contemporary with the remodelling of house. Shown complete on 1st edition OS map, surveyed in 1886. The complex was converted into letting units in the 1990s.  

Exterior
L-plan, rubble building with slate roof including chimney with cornice band. 2-bays to each elevation facing a square yard; gabled dormers to loft accommodation with horned 6-pane sash windows; plain modern bargeboards. Overall slated lean-to canopy to ground floor. This has boarded doors to each range in the corner, with a 6-pane sash to the L and R respectively; beyond are large openings (formerly for coaches) with folding external boarded doors; within are modern part-glazed doors with adjacent 6-pane sashes, copies of the original type.
