Abstract: |
Basic level building recording of the Stable Block took place in advance of a proposal to convert the north wing to a residential unit. The Stable Block was built as a courtyard steading in the late 18th century or early 19th century and was substantially rebuilt the 1870s when the adjacent Friars Carse House was remodelled. The only elements surviving from the original building are the west wing and the lower sections of the north and west walls of the north wing. The west gable of the west wing also incorporates part of an earlier but undated wall indicating that there was a structure on site before the steading was built. The east and south wings of the Stable Block probably date from the remodelling in the 1870s as do the doocot and the pend in the west wing and it seems that that the north wing was substantially rebuilt at the same time. Two wooden stalls survive in one of the rooms in the east wing and the outlines of four box stalls remain in the north wing. |
