Description

ST STEPHEN IN
SW 95 SW BRANNEL
3/112 Stable about 50 metres west of
- Bodinnick Farmhouse

GV II

Stable; incorporating part of the front walls of a former house. Probably early C17;
rebuilt circa late C18 with few later alterations. Granite rubble. The C17 wall is
in squared granite with granite dressings. Hipped rag slate roof with ridge tiles.
Plan: Small rectangular stable with shippons at ground floor and loft above. The
entrance is at the left end of the front, and the stable is built into the bank at
the right end with loading door directly into the loft from the upper ground level.
The front wall incorporates a section of C17 wall, on a plinth with a window, which,
judging from the quality of the stonework, would have lit a principal room. There is
a small C19 shed attached to front right.
Exterior: 2 storeys, asymmetrical front with quoins to left. At ground floor there
is a doorway to left with granite lintel and keystone. To right, the wall stands on
a tall hollow-chamfered plinth, with a 6-light granite window, with hollow-chamfered
mullions and surround, the king mullion hollow-chamfered with a roll-mouldings;
moulded cornice and relieving arch over. Two of the lights are blocked. To right
there is an attached single storey rubble shed with doorway at the inner side and
gable end to front. At the left end there is a window at ground floor with voussoirs
and keystone, 2-light window with shutters at first floor. At the right end there is
a loading door at upper ground level. At the rear there is a plank door at loft
level.
Interior: The stable appears to be completely of the C18, with only the front wall of
the early C17; there is no internal evidence to suggest which part of a former
building the front wall might have been.
