Along with designing the grounds, Calvert Vaux also designed this carriage house, which remains in poor condition. The initials on the chimney stand for the Suckley family who owned the estate, and '88 must have been the year of its completion.

Built in 1880, it is the best remaining example of a Victorian-era carriage house. It contains wood shingles of various designs, vertical and horizontal siding and diagonal braces.

This is the shot of the roof and steeple of the 'Carriage House' at the Morey Mansion in Redlands, CA. Most mansions of the day had such buildings to house the horses and carrages. Some had an upper story with rooms for guests. David Morey designed a lot of ornate features even for this outbuilding.
