Former landing stage for ferry from the Kingswear railway terminus. c1864-70. Timber-framed, of large-panel framing with middle rails covered internally with vertical boards, all painted, on a brick plinth; hipped roof of coated slate.

EXTERIOR: one storey; six-bay front contains a series of windows (mostly full-height) and glazed doors, all C20 without glazing bars. Similar windows and doors on the other sides. Old timber thresholds indicate two original front doorways, one in the bay right of centre and another in the right end bay. Canopy with timber valance across the front carried on cast-iron brackets. It is roofed with corrugated-iron and glass. Timber box cornice at eaves level. Hipped roof has flat top to accommodate ventilators, enclosed by a balustrade of ornamental cast-iron; each standard with a large star and taller, more-elaborate finials each end. At the right (south) end there is a contemporary covered approach originally connecting to the ferry landing stage; a pitched corrugated-iron roof supported at the end on a single upright iron girder.

INTERIOR: flat C20 ceiling hides the roof structure.
