Built in response to rising traffic on the canal from passenger boats as well as freight these were built around 1820. Forth & Clyde standard pattern stable blocks - part of the original building has been demolished. This was the second building and was set back from the canal as the ground adjacent to it was found to be too soft after the first building sank into the bog.
