Description
A long, hip-roofed building of two storeys, probably the former stable to the Rock and Fountain Inn. In its present form it dates from the late 18th century but may incorporate a 17th century building.

From Cadw Listings database:
Stable block, possibly with C17 origins. Said to be the former stables of the Inn. Two storeys, rectangular whitewashed rubble elevations with terracotta pantiled hipped roof. Roadside elevation has six window openings with cambered heads; three at ground floor, three above, offset to right. The first floor windows have simple square sectioned mullions. The ground floor openings have timber shutters and central bar while the left hand window to ground floor has been bricked up. W gable has a large cartshed entrance with timber lintel and square window above. The rear elevation is unlit with a central square-headed loft doorway, offset, at first floor level with flight of stone steps leading up to it with wrought iron handrail. The E gable has a single square window opening with window missing, set at first floor level. Immediately to the left a gabled cross range has been removed; this formerly closed the yard to the NE. Blocked doorways may be found beneath the render on the sides as no stable doors remain today. In poor condition at time of inspection (July 1995).
