Description
A harbour and pier of 1816-24 by John Rennie and Joseph Whidbey, with an altered Defence Electric Light (searchlight) emplacement of c.1900.
MATERIALS: constructed of shale and rubble infill, faced in Oreston limestone blocks with Dartmoor granite corner blocks. The searchlight is constructed of concrete and brick.
DESCRIPTION: the harbour and pier is L-plan, facing north-west, with a short north arm or jetty projecting from the demi-round north-west corner. Granite steps lead down to water level from the pier. The searchlight emplacement on the north-west corner has been much-altered. Pursuant to s.1 (5A) of the Planning (Listed Buildings and Conservation Areas) Act 1990 (‘the Act’) it is declared that the late-C20 steel lookout structure fixed to the north-west corner is not of special architectural or historic interest.
