The Royal Hotel and Terrace site also included a row of buildings at the back called Royal Mews. These were provided as stabling for horses and accommodation for their grooms, with one mews building for each house in the Terrace. Many of these had been converted to other uses by 1978, but the Trust acquired one of them and restored it to its original appearance and brought it back into use. It is still owned by the Trust and is let to raise funds to assist with the restoration of other buildings.
