Stable
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
- For the wrestling term, see Stable (professional wrestling).
A stable is a building in which livestock, usually horses, are kept. It most commonly means a building that is divided into separate stalls for individual animals.
Historically, the headquarters of a unit of cavalry rather than just their horses' accommodation, would be called a stable.
Used metaphorically from this origin, a stable is a collection of people (e.g. professional wrestlers) working under a single manager or animals kept by one owner.
Stable is also a rock band from the warfedale region of Yorkshire. They consist of Joe Fletcher, Oliver Knox, Nick Rushfirth and Jack Minchella.
