What is recorded here

Detached single-bay (single-bay deep) single-storey gable-fronted boathouse, built 1890, on a rectangular plan. Now disused. Pitched (gable-fronted) slate roof with clay ridge tiles, lichen-spotted cut-granite coping to gables, and no rainwater goods on rendered eaves. Fine roughcast walls over coursed or snecked rubble stone construction with red brick flush quoins to corners. Segmental-headed opening with red brick block-and-start surround centred on keystone framing timber boarded or tongue-and-groove timber panelled double doors. Camber-headed window openings to side elevations with cut-granite sills, and red brick block-and-start surrounds framing rendered infill. Set in unkempt grounds.
A boathouse forming part of a neat self-contained group alongside the nearby Bannow Coastguard Station (see 15705011) with the resulting ensemble making a pleasing visual statement overlooking Clammers Point.
