Stable Block immediately south east of Little Toller Farm, Toller Fratrum - Dorset (UA)

Mid C16 stable building, forming part of a working farm but currently disused. Deterioration to the thatch led to partial collapse of the roof and rear wall structure at the end of 2011. The building was scaffolded with a temporary roof structure in 2012 but that is no longer protecting the collapsed historic fabric. The local authority has attempted to discuss with the owner but has so far not been successful in securing either short-term stabilisation or a long-term plan for the building. Historic England is currently discussing options for securing the building with the local authority.
