2. The stable building to east of the house, now converted to garage, is said to be contemporary with the early portions of the house. C15, but with considerable later restoration (probably in C19.) Ashlar. Old tiled roof. Gable-ends with parapets and kneelers. Plinth. Canopied niche (empty) over the garage doors. To west of the stables is a tall pointed archway giving access to the north side of Belcombe Court. Probably late medieval, and the original south archway from the neighbouring barn. Random rubble with ashlar dressings. Plain chamfered arch of 2 orders with dripmould over.

Belcombe Court forms an important group with the Temple, Stables, Barn, Grotto and Cottage to the west.
