Name of Property
Stables & Coach House at Bryngwyn Hall
Location
Bryngwyn Hall is set in its own landscaped gardens on the N side of Bwlch-y-cibau. The stables and coach-house are immediately downhill to the N of the main house.
History
The stables and coach-house are probably contemporary with the 1813 remodelling and enlargements of Bryngwyn Hall for its new owner Martin Williams. They may incorporate earlier work form the period of the original 1770's house.
Bryngwyn Hall was erected 1773-4 to the designs of the architect Robert Mylne. The house was badly damaged by fire in 1793, repaired by the Shrewsbury architect J.H.Haycock and was then sold in 1802. In 1813 it was substantially enlarged, and in 1914 further alterations were carried out. Restored early 1990's.
Exterior
U-plan courtyard range of service buildings. Mostly red brick, although rubble to rear of stables; hipped slate roofs with wide boarded eaves to the coach-house. The coach-house at the uphill end is probably of 1813 work, in English garden-wall bond, but other sides of the courtyard are in Flemish bond, and are probably mid-late C19. The coach-house has cambered headed openings with boarded doors and 3-light small paned casement windows above. At right angles, linking with the stables, is a tall round-arched opening to a through-passage. The stables are stepped down to the left and have a boarded door flanked by square headed windows (now boarded up); a similar range forms the downhill side of the courtyard with retains its diamond-leaded glazing. Rubble to the rear of both these stable ranges except for the top courses of brick, indicating that this is a heightening and remodelling of an earlier building. Further outbuildings demolished at the left (W) end.
Reason for designation
Included for group value with Bryngwyn Hall.
