Description
The Hartland Quay Hotel is an early 18th-century building that was extended in the 19th century. It is constructed of stone rubble, with the right-hand half whitewashed and the left-hand half rendered. The roof is slate, with stone coping to the right gable, and incorporates two brick axial stacks.
Originally built as a merchant's house alongside a malthouse, stables, and stores, the building comprises three sections separated by two large internal walls. The southern section housed the malthouse, stables, and stores, with a hayloft above accessed from a higher road at the rear; a third floor in the roof was used as a poultry house in the early 20th century. A large malthouse chimney ran along the end wall. The central and northern sections were also of three storeys, with a granary on the top floor. At one point, the ground floor of the central section operated as a bank. Converted to a hotel in the late 19th century, when the building was extended.
The asymmetrical 5:8 window front displays a flat brick string course above the ground floor on the original, right-hand section. The top floor has early 20th-century 8-pane sash windows except for a contemporary bay window second from the right. Three windows are at a lower level on the left. The ground floor retains five original window openings with chamfered surrounds and brick relieving arches, now containing 2-pane sashes. One additional window has been added towards the left end. A loading hatch below the eaves at the left end originally served the granary. Two 20th-century porches, with part-glazed doors, are positioned to the right and left of centre, along with another door at the left-hand end. The right-hand gable features two original angle buttresses with shaped tops. The extension to the left-hand end has two large two-storey bays on the middle and upper floors, with hipped roofs and later 19th or early 20th-century sashes. Other windows on this section are early 19th-century sashes with 16 and 12 panes, alongside later 19th-century sashes. A lower two-window addition is present at the left-hand end.
The interior was not inspected.
