Description

The Former Harbour Cafe is a house that was later used as a cafe, and it was vacant at the time of the survey. It dates from the early 19th century and is constructed of painted brick with a hipped Welsh slate roof on the southwest corner. The building is two storeys high and has an 'L' plan shape.

The front elevation facing Church Street features three large recessed double-hung sash windows with small panes and slightly arched Roman cement heads that have projecting keystones. The ground floor has two similar tripartite windows. The central entrance is framed by an Egyptian doorcase that includes a flat hood, an oversailing entablature, and sharply tapering pilasters. The door is deeply recessed and has panelled flanks with raised-and-fielded upper panels. Above the door is a large rectangular fanlight with six flush panels and narrow panelled strips on either side.

On the southeast elevation facing Customs House Lane, there is one large and one small double-hung sash window on the first floor, similar to those on the front. The ground floor features one similar double-hung sash window, a contemporary door opening, and two 20th-century windows. At the northeast end, there is a lean-to roofed with machine-made clay plain tiles that connects to an interesting outbuilding. This outbuilding is timber-framed and plastered, has a plain clay tile roof, a tall rear stack, and a cellar underneath.
