Peover Hall Stable Block

[1] The stable block was built in 1654 as a gift from Mrs Ellen Mainwaring to her son Thomas.

[1] The block is in two storeys, and is built in red and plum-coloured brick with a slate roof and stone dressings.

[1] Internally are 13 stalls with wooden terminating posts in the form of carved Tuscan style columns standing on octagonal pedestals.

The upper parts of the columns have semicircular arches leading to carved lintels, the whole structure forming an elaborate screen.

It is stated that "the application of these details to a stable makes this one of the most lavish buildings of this date in Cheshire".
