Carolina Cellar And Wall Adjoining To North West

The Carolina Cellar and the adjoining wall to the northwest is a structure likely built in the mid-19th century. Originally fish cellars, it now serves as a store with holiday accommodation above. The building is constructed from stone rubble and features large quoins, topped with a slate roof that has a hipped end on the right and a gable end on the left. There is a 20th-century stone rubble chimney stack on the front slope of the left-hand gable end.

The building has two storeys and a regular four-window front. On the ground floor, there are two blocked store openings with timber lintels, along with a central opening that contains a 20th-century plank door and timber lintel. The first floor has four 20th-century two-light casements with glazing bars and renewed timber lintels. The right-hand gable end features a 20th-century stable-type door on the ground floor, with stone rubble steps leading up to the first-floor accommodation, which includes 20th-century casements and a partly glazed door. The left-hand gable end has been partly rebuilt.

The building adjoins a further stone rubble wall that is set back and extends to the northwest, comprising the remains of the fish cellar. Historically, pilchard catches were loaded into wooden barrels and crushed by large stones suspended from long poles, which were slotted into brick niches that remain largely intact along this stone rubble wall.
