Residence 6, Royal Clarence
Victualling Yard
GV II
Officers' house at naval victualling yard. 1830-31, by G L Taylor, architect to the Navy Board. Stuccoed brick with 2 rear lateral stacks and slate hipped roof. Late Georgian style. Single-depth plan, attached to left of guard house.
EXTERIOR: 2 storey; 3-window range. A symmetrical front with plat band, cornice and parapet, central door surround with pilasters to an entablature, double panelled door and overlight, and 4/4-pane sashes. Window-less rear elevation.
INTERIOR has a central stair, some original plasterwork and joinery. HISTORY: used at one time as the Inspector of Police's house, and part of a symmetrical plan with the flanking archway and opposing officers' houses (qqv). The navy customarily housed senior yard officers on site. Clarence is on a less magnificent scale and more altered than Royal William Yard, Devonport (qqv), but is never the less one of the first large industrial food processing plants in the country, and indicative of the considerable scale of the navy's victualling operation.
