Willington Dovecote & Stables is a National Trust property located in Willington, near Bedford, Bedfordshire, England. Both buildings are Grade I listed.[1][2]
The property is a 16th-century stable and stone dovecote, which contains nesting boxes for over 1500 pigeons.
The dovecote and stables themselves were commissioned by Sir John Gostwick. Completed in around 1541, they were made from the remains of a manorial complex, and include stones most likely taken from local priories, in particular Newnham Priory, after the Dissolution of the Monasteries.
A signature on the stone above the fireplace in the stables reads "John Bunyan", but its authenticity has not been proven.

The stables at Château de Bizy - original from the 18th century, with space for 60 horses.
The château was originally built in 1675 by Michel-André Jubert Bouville - but has been rebuilt several times, first already in 1741-1743 for Charles Louis Auguste Fouquet de Belle-Isle (duc de Belle-Isle) by the architect Pierre Contant d'Ivry, earning the place the nickname the Versailles of Normandy. The château changed hands many times before ending up with the Baron Fernand de Schickler in 1858 (when the baron was 19 years old) and in 1860 he had it rebuilt by the architect William Henry White in Italian neo-classical style. The château is now the residence of the Duc d'Albufera (the fourth duke was a nephew of Baron Schickler).

The stables at the Pebble Hill Plantation in Thomasville, GA. In the 1930's when the wealthy northerners where coming to Winter in Southern Georgia they discovered they could purchase land cheaper then rent a hotel room. They built some magnificent homes and now some are open to the public.

Today we visited a stable with an amazing reputation, where almost all of the horses who are boarded here are champions in a discipline. That can be in dressage, reining or even in-hand, their shiny coats prove that they are much more than just horses.

`Seen from the edge of the Downslink. With the help of Photo editing software, I removed as much modernity as I could - overhead cables, poles, lighting - to make it look as old as I could. I have no idea how old the building is, mind!
stable fly
The calf stinger looks harmless like a house fly, but, as its name suggests, it prefers to sting people in the calf. If it is warm and humid, the stable fly multiplies rapidly.
The Alter Real is a strain of the Lusitano which is bred only at the Alter Real State Stud in Portugal. The stud was founded in 1748 by the Portuguese royal family to provide horses for the national riding academy and royal use. The Portuguese School of Equestrian Art (Escola Portuguesa de Arte Equestre) uses these horses exclusively in their performances. The strain was developed from 300 Iberian mares imported from Spain in 1747. When Napoleon invaded Spain in the early 19th century, the Alter Real strain deteriorated due to the introduction of Arabian, Thoroughbred, Spanish-Norman and Hanoverian blood. However, in the 19th and 20th centuries the strain was re-established with the further introduction of Spanish blood.
In the early 20th century, with the 1910 revolution that ended the monarchy, the Alter Real strain faced extinction, as records were burned, stallions were gelded and the stud discontinued. Ruy d'Andrade, a specialist in Iberian horse breeds, saved two stallions and several mares, and was able to re-establish the strain, turning his herd over to the Portuguese Ministry of Agriculture in 1942, when the stud was reopened.The Portuguese state has maintained ownership of the stud, and continues to produce horses for use in high school dressage.

A shaky old log house in Paris, Idaho has been converted into a stable for two horses by simply cutting a chunk out of one side. One horse showed some interest in the photographer, but a sway-backed old-timer kept his head in the shade. The barbed wire fence coils added just the right accent. HFF
These small stables with the adjacent paddock are down near the River Nene at Wadenhoe. This is roughly halfway between Thrapston and Oundle in Northamptonshire's Nene Valley. I would imagine they belong to nearby Wadenhoe House, but according to the internet the hotel is now permanently closed. This shot was taken before the travel restrictions came into force.

Constructed around 1820, the Craigmarloch Stables, now sadly a roofless ruin, were part of a chain of stables for the massive engineering project of the nearby Forth and Clyde Canal, to provide a change of fresh horses to walk along the towpath, hauling barges (on the days before engines were fitted to the boats, and hence why we had the towpaths).
Apparently the first stables were built slightly closer to the canal route here where it passes between Kilsyth and Dullatur, but that land is a bog, and the buildings sank into it, so this neo-classical structure was built just a little further back from the canal, on some slightly raised ground. Once it would have housed numerous horses, with facilities to take care of them and residential spaces for their keepers, but sadly it is now decaying and considered to be an at-risk historic building.
