Details

BERRINGTON C.P. A458 (south-west side) SJ 50 NW SJ 5278 0776 3/31 Stables and coach house 19.1.83 at Berrington Buildings (formerly listed as Berrington Buildings) GV II Stables and coach house, now cow house. Circa 1780-90, possibly by George Steuart. Red brick with grey sandstone ashlar dressings; hipped plain tile roof. One storey and loft. South-west front: plinth, stone impost band, and dentil brick eaves cornice. 1:1:1 bays. Central break with blind segmental archway and flanking paired brick pilaster strips supporting stone-dressed triangular pediment with bullseye window in tympanum; flanking bays with blind round-arched recesses. Rear has segmental-headed boarded and blind loft openings and ground- floor segmental-headed slatted windows and 2-leaf boarded doors; evidence of former large opening (see straight joint). Interior not inspected but said to have timber framed cross-walls, door with 6 raised and fielded panels, boarded stalls, feeding racks and troughs, and cobbled floors. The stables have probably been attributed to Steuart largely because they stand within the Attingham Estate [Attingham Park, Atcham C.P. (q.v.)]. However the main front faces towards Berrington Hall (q.v.) of 1805 by Joseph Bromfield, as if to screen the buildings from the house. Paired brick pilaster strips similar to those at Berrington Buildings, also occur in the service wing of the house. It is possible that the stables at Berrington Buildings date from 1805 or perhaps that Bromfield took the details from them. There is no evidence of any earlier building on the site of Berrington Hall. The relationship of the house and the stables at Berrington Buildings deserves further investigation.
