The stables from the S. List description: britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-406401-audley-end-stables... . Now dated to the early C17, according to the Buildings of England: Essex (2007 edn.), p.105, which compares the windows with St Mark's College (see www.flickr.com/photos/40878011@N07/12010405114 ). The style is less fashionable than that of the house, possibly to create a little "fake history" (cf. Heritage Today , May 2010, 17-18). The building seems to have originated as ancillary domestic accommodation (perhaps for the lower ranks among those accompanying the monarch on progress), but was converted to a stable a few years after its construction, possibly because the now-demolished forecourt of the main house took over its original function. [Paul Drury and Pete Smith, 'The Audley End Stable Block in the 17th Century', English Heritage Historical Review , 5 (2010), pp.44, 64, 73, 79] The lantern may date from the 1860s. [ ibid. , 76]
