brick in English bond, hipped slate roofs on 2 levels with red
ridge tiles. Linear plan formed by single-depth main range
with axial side wings.
2-storey 3-window main range, single-storey 2-and 3-window
wings; with saw-toothed eaves bands and segmental-headed

2-pane overlight. Most openings boarded or damaged at time of
inspection (1991).
INTERIOR: not accessible at time of survey, but known to have
many original features, including ramped stall partitions with
cast-iron columnar kicking posts, and iron hay racks.
HISTORY: rebuild of earlier stables.
Forms part of an important group at this wharf, including Nos
85 & 85A (Wharfmaster's House and Toll Office, qv), and 3
warehouses (south, centre and north (qv)). Included for group
