Description

The slipway and small bridge over the stream adjoining the Fish Cellars at The Platt in Port Isaac are possibly from the 19th century. The slipway leads down from Fore Street to the harbour and is made of stone rubble, partly constructed of vertically coursed slate stones, with a surface of partly cement screed. The bridge is located to the west, spanning a small stream that flows beneath Fore Street and runs between the Fish Cellars to the west and the slipway to the east into the harbour. It is built of stone rubble with a dressed stone round arch. Notably, the lifeboat house opposite the slipway on Fore Street was built in 1927 but was never used and was taken out of commission the same year.
