Stables and kennels to Bradgate House, Bradgate Hill, Groby - Hinckley and Bosworth

Complex of brick stables and kennels built 1856 to house the 7th Earl of Stamford's 47 horses. Largely ruinous by 1988 and now derelict and in very bad condition having not been maintained for many years. The structure is actively deteriorating. There are multiple structural concerns; periodic masonry collapses; uncontrolled and significant ivy growth and self-seeded trees. The local authority has exercised its statutory powers and this may prompt voluntary action in 2023. Historic England is providing grant aid and technical advice to the council. A feasibility study is to commence in 2023.
