Architecture
The Stables (now the Concert Hall) and the Riding School (now the Corn Exchange) were commissioned by the Prince Regent to the designs of William Porden in the early 19th century.

The Studio Theatre stands on the site of stables which were built for Maria Fitzherbert, a long-term companion of the Prince Regent, in 1808. The stables were later demolished and, Supper Rooms were built on the site to the designs of Robert Atkinson and completed in 1935. It was converted into a theatre shortly afterwards.
