09. Holland House Stables
Holland House stables.
Welcome to Newmarket, the home of horseracing (as the tourist info board will tell you). Makes sense then to explore the dingier, derelict stables. I don’t know much about the history of this place, so will let the pics do the talking.
There are several dwellings on the site, presumably for stable hands / farriers, which I have posted in a separate report.
There are a fair number of stables, spread between 2 yards.

I’m sure if they knew we were coming to take pic’s they’d have had a tidy up.
Main yard from higher up
Moi, looking out of a door on first floor! Cheers to Cavewheel for pic!
Obligatory chair shot
The bare wooden floors, and open ceilings gave it a really pleasant feel upstairs.
This little fella was exploring in the yard:

Holland Houses
Welcome to Newmarket, the home of horseracing (as the tourist info board will tell you). Makes sense then to explore the dingier, derelict side of the sport. Holland Houses are a few small dwellings attached to a larger stud which I have posted separately due to the size of the site. Judging by the size of the houses I’m assuming they were for stable hands / farriers, etc.
I cant find much about the history of this place, so will let the pics do the talking.
How nice is the ivy.
A religious ode still untouched, on the mantle piece.
Retro phone book,
How long will it be until the red ivy bursts through and reclaims the interior?
Quality retro mattress
