Abstract: |
An historic building record of the lookout was prepared before its demolition. The Coastguard had a presence in Port Isaac from the 1830s. The investigated building was constructed in the mid 1920s, and decommissioned in 2017. The report discusses the local context of the building in relation to the Coastguard in Port Isaac. The lookout as recorded had been heavily altered, and only room 2, and possibly room 3, formed part of the 1920s building. In the late 20th century the lookout was renewed as a result of rot to the timber structure. One part was demolished and a new lookout room (1) was constructed. A garage, latterly used as a store, was subsequently added to the south end of the building. Original finishes and fittings partially survived within room 1, but the majority of the fabric and fittings dated to the later 20th century. |
