Tamar Hotel

This is an inn, likely dating from the early 18th century, with alterations and additions from the mid-18th century, the 19th century, and the 20th century. The building is constructed of painted slatestone rubble with granite dressings, and has a slate and asbestos slate roof, hipped to the left and with a gable end to the right. There is a rear lateral stack to the left, and two inserted front lateral stacks to the right.

The original structure consists of a front range featuring a room to the left heated by a rear lateral stack, an entrance, and two rooms to the right, now combined into a larger space. Around the mid-19th century, a single-room addition was built to the right end, with a front door. Later in the 19th century, a rear wing was added, initially as a two-room house with a central entrance. To the right end of this wing, a two-storey stable was attached. A single-storey addition from the 20th century extends to the rear of the main range.

The front elevation is symmetrical with four windows, all of which are 20th-century casements. Ground floor windows have wedge-shaped stone lintels with keystones, a granite band course, and a granite pilaster to the left. There is a six-panelled door with an overlight and flat hood on brackets, and a four-panelled door with an overlight and cornice to the right end. The right-hand addition has 20th-century windows on both the ground and first floors. Above the main door is a panel, likely originally for a sign, and there is a 20th-century flat-roofed dormer. The left side has 20th-century windows on both ground and first floors, along with a 20th-century dormer, and a single-storey rubble addition. The right side of the building features a six-pane light on the ground floor and a 19th-century 16-pane sash on the first floor. The attached cottage has a central plank door and 19th-century 16-pane sashes to the left and right, with two 16-pane sashes on the first floor. The stable has a central plank door and casements with segmental heads to the right and left; a first-floor loading door with strap hinges, and small windows with shutters to the right and left. 20th-century garage doors are located at the rear. The rear of the main range incorporates a single-storey 20th-century addition and 20th-century windows on the first floor.

The interior of the building was not inspected.
