Description

The Dockmaster's Office is a small single-storey building constructed from tooled granite rubble blocks and topped with a hipped slate roof. The front (east) wall features a wide tripartite horned sash window with a stone lintel and cill positioned roughly in the center, with a doorway located to the left. The right side of the building has a narrower tripartite sash window, also with a stone lintel and cill. The rear wall and the left side are blank, except for a purple brick shaft that indicates the location of an integral stack from a former use. The interior has been altered.
