LEEK

SJ95NE ABBEY GREEN ROAD 611-1/1/8 (East side) 13/04/51 Eastern stable range at Dieu-la-Cres Abbey Farm (Formerly Listed as: ABBEY GREEN Farm buildings of Dieu-la-Cres Abbey Farm)

GV II

Stable range. c1820. Constructed from stones of the C13 abbey of Dieu l'Acres. Coursed and squared stone with slate roofs. EXTERIOR: single-storeyed, with 3 stable doors and inserted double doors towards right. The building is ornamented with fragments of worked stone, including corbel heads, taken from the abbey. INTERIOR: not inspected. The building forms a group with the byre (qv) and W stable range of Dieu-la-Cres Abbey Farm (qv), together with the farmhouse (qv). Together with these buildings, it is an important example of the deliberate reuse of early material, representing a type of antiquarianism. (Sleigh, John: A History of the Ancient Parish of Leek: Leek: 1862-).
