Description

Prince Olav's Slipway is an early 19th-century building that has undergone alterations around 1940. It is a single-storey structure with a lower floor that was originally a fishing booth, which has since been converted into a boatyard that includes a slipway. The south wall and gables are constructed of harl-pointed rubble, while the north elevation is rendered and painted.

The north elevation, facing Main Street, is asymmetrical with the lower floor hidden below road level. To the left of the center, there is a two-leaf vertically-boarded timber door, and to the right, a wide service door. On the outer left, there is an 8-pane hoppered timber window, and on the outer right, a 9-pane fixed light window.

The east gable is blank with no openings. The south elevation, which faces the sea, is also asymmetrical and features a four-bay arrangement (grouped 1-2-1). It has an irregular arrangement of windows and vertically-boarded timber doors on the lower floor, with 3-pane timber fixed lights in each bay on the upper floor.

The west gable is blank except for a single door on the right at the lower floor. The roof is covered with purple-grey slate, and the gablehead stacks are cement-rendered with concrete copes and circular cans, flanked by concrete skew-copes.
