There are 9 stables in total contained in one large building. The building is steel framed with a fibre cement roof, concrete floor and part Yorkshire board and part block walls. The stables, marked in yellow on the plan, benefit from a water and electricity supply.
Outbuildings
There are three outbuildings, hatched in red on the plan, directly opposite the house, two with electric roller shutter doors. These could be used as garages or for feed and tack storage. They have concrete floors and are constructed of part block and part Yorkshire boarding with a fibre cement roof.

Business Opportunity
The current owners of West Close House have benefitted from a change of use for the land, to provide agricultural and horticultural training facilities for adults with learning difficulties. There may be the opportunity to develop this business further or operate a similar business from the property.
