Description
Formerly the stables and carriage house attached to Bronllys Castle House (NPRN 25159).

1. Traces of medieval work have been recognised in the northern gable end, possibly re-used as chimney end of 17th century house.

2. A three-bay building facing east onto the carriage drive. It has a single storey and an attic, or loft. The walls are of stone rubble and the roof is slate-hung. It shows a comparatively polite facade to the carriage drive turning circle on the south-east. There was previously a vehical entrance at the rear of the building.
A large and ruinous, two or three storey rectangular building is depicted in this area in a print of 1741. This had gone by 1804, but it seems likely that the medieval work incorporated into the stables is part of the same building.
