BURLESCOMBE AYSHFORD ST 01 NW 4/18 Stables approximately 25 - metres north-east of Ayshford Court GV II Stables. C17, refurbished in late C19. Local stone rubble; slate roof, probably thatch originally. Plan: stable block facing south-east on the opposite side of the lane to the C16 barn (q.v.). The building was much-altered in the late C19 and the arrangement of doorways, windows and loading hatches date from that time. Nevertheless the basic structure is still C17. It has stables with a hayloft over. Exterior: the front has 3 stable doorways each with a window to right of it. The right end doorway is taller than the others and has a segmental head; so too does its window. This doorway also has a second small window to left of it. The hayloft has an irregular disposition of 4 windows and there is a hayloft loading hatch left of centre. All the joinery is late C19 and the windows are plain and unglazed. The roof is gable-ended. Interior: the carpentry detail is all C17. It is oak and neatly-finished. The crossbeams are soffit-chamfered with runout stops. The 6-bay roof is carried on A- frame trusses with pegged lap-jointed collars and dovetail halvings. The base of each principal is lap-jointed onto wall posts which are set into the top ends of the crossbeams. This arrangement suggests that the hayloft was originally open on both sides. It may even have been built as a linhay. This is difficult to prove since most of the masonry was replaced or refaced in the late C19.
