II
Formerly known as: Churston Links Hotel BRIXHAM ROAD Churston Ferrers. Shown on OS map as Churston Links Hotel. Public house. Probably early 1860s. Solid rendered walls. Hipped slated roof. Rendered chimneys with prominent flat caps. Double-fronted, double-depth plan with secondary block set back to left. 2 storeys. 3 windows wide with 2 further windows in secondary block. Doorway flanked by Doric pilasters supporting entablature. Windows have moulded architraves, those in ground storey with friezes and cornices that reach to the sills of the windows above. Barred sashes: 6 over 6 panes in ground storey, 3 over 6 panes in second storey. Raised band at cornice-level in ground storey. Deep flat eaves-cornice. Right side wall is similar; centre doorway with raised moulded surround and entablature. Barred sashes in left-hand window of each storey. Left side wall has 1 window of the same design per storey; also with barred sashes, except for the upper sash in ground storey. Secondary block (which lies nearest Brixham Road) is similar to the main building, but with plain window surrounds; barred sashes in front and left side walls. INTERIOR: only public rooms in ground storey inspected; these have been considerably altered. The building adjoins Churston Station and was presumably the Station Hotel mentioned in directories from 1866 onwards. The station, originally known as Brixham Road, was on the Dartmouth and Torbay Railway and was opened in 1861. The Torbay and Brixham Railway, which ran from here to Brixham, was opened in 1868. (MacDermot ET: History of the Great Western Railway: 1964-: 125, 183; Kelly: Directory of Devonshire: 1866-: 763).
