3/177 Hartland Quay Hotel

GV II

Hotel. Early C18 extended in C19. Stone rubble walls, whitewashed to right-hand half, rendered to left-hand half. Gable-ended slate roof with stone coping at right-hand gable-end. 2 brick axial stacks. Plan: the original building comprises the right-hand half of what now stands. Built as merchant's house with adjoining malthouse, stables and stores. The building was divided into 3 sections by 2 massive internal walls. The southern part contained the malthouse, stables and stores, with a hayloft on the floor above which had access to the higher road at the rear. A third floor in the roof space was used as a poultry house early in the C20. The large malthouse chimney ran up the inside of the end wall. The central and northern sections were also of 3 storeys and in the top floor was the granary. At one stage the ground floor of the central section was a bank. The northern part of the building was the merchant's house. Converted to hotel in the late C19 which was probably when the building was extended. Exterior: 3 storeys. Long asymmetrical 5:8 window front, the original building to the right with a flat brick string above the ground floor. On the top floor all the windows are early C20 8-pane sashes apart from a contemporary bay window 2nd from the right. The 3 left-hand windows are at a lower level. On the ground floor are 5 original window openings with chamfered surrounds and brick relieving arches over C20 2-pane sashes. An additional window has been inserted towards the left-hand end. Below the eaves at the left-hand end is a loading hatch formerly for the granary. 2 lean-to C20 porches to right and left of centre with C20 part-glazed doors and another door at the left-hand end. The right-hand gable has 2 original angle buttresses at the corners which have shaped tops. The C19 addition at theleft end has 2 large 2-storey bays to the middle and top floors to left and right of centre with separate hipped roof. These have later C19 or early C20 sashes. Windows below and between them are early C19 sashes of 16 and 12-panes. Later C19 sashes to the right. 2 C20 part-glazed doors to left and right and left of centre. Lower 2-window addition at left-hand end. Interior: not inspected. Source: Hartland Quay - The Story of a Vanished Port: M. Nix and M.R .Myers.
