Coach House to London Lode Hall.

Listed as a coach house of around 1800, gault brick, two storeys with symmetrical arrangement of carriage doors flanked by round headed loose box windows; granary floor above has central loading door and square windows to each side. Tumbled gable.
Information from (S1).

However, the list does not mention that the rear wall is of red brick; adjoining here is a larger wing in the same style as the façade but appearing to butt-join. All the gault bricks similar with horizontal skintlings. Listing is also incorrect in saying the roof is plain tiled - it is in fact, remarkably, of Collyweston stone slates, set on an A-frame with birdsmouthed collars, raking end windbraces, and four spaces with low purlins as if for former skylights. Nailed rather than pegged. Rear window has similar timber roof still with assembly numbers but was clad in corrugated iron. Collyweston slates being restored 2003.
See NHER 40062 for London Lode Hall.
