INTERIOR: The barn has the oldest roof: trusses with principals with short curved feet with mortised collars, most of the feet of the principals truncated to rear of the ridge. Some evidence for rear door opposed to front threshing door; loft removed expect for over cartway. Interior of house preserves good quality carpentry in the hall, which has a chamfered step-stopped crossbeam and chamfered stopped joists. Fireplace with stone rubble jambs and new timber lintel, perhaps concealing earlier fireplace behind. The lower end room has rough carpentry and a lower ceiling. Stair projection off rear of hall, stone stair removed and replaced with timber. Roof: Pegged A-frame trusses of a late C17 character with halved collars over the centre and left-hand rooms. The roof over the right-hand room looks later, perhaps late C18 with smaller timbers and butt collar.

Dendy designed and supervised the construction of the pier, opened and built hotels and theatres, developed land and, in 1883, provided a cycling track which was said to be the best in the country. The corrugated-asbestos on part of the roof is said to be an exceptionally early use of this material (information from Borough Surveyor). The family at Parkfield are said to have been involved in the manufacture of asbestos sheeting. An exceptional house at time of survey, not for the outstanding quality of its interior features, but for the rarity of its completeness, unaltered since c1900.

Converted to hotel in 1903, contractor Dart and Pollard of Paignton (plaque in entrance hall). Various C20 alterations and additions. Smith's building in Gothick style with Indian influence. MATERIALS: Roughcast with stuccoed detail; roof and stacks of original build concealed by parapets. PLAN: On the sea front. Approximate T-shaped plan. No obvious trace of the pre-1853 house, converted by Smith. Smith's building, although somewhat obcsured by later accretions, consisted of a rotunda facing E out to sea with, according to Pevsner, 3 added wings, for picture gallery, conservatory and billiard room, and servants' quarters. Originally there was a tunnel, destroyed in a storm in 1867, leading to a plunge bath on the beach below. Only the N wing is still identifiable (on the W side) as Smith's building. The W wing was thoroughly recast in c1902 and has been extended W. The S wing has also been altered. The 1986 addition is not included in the listing. EXTERIOR: 3-storey rotunda; 2-storey wings; W wing 3 storeys. East elevation, facing the sea consists of the rotunda with a 4-bay front, flanked by a 5:2 window wing to the left (S) and a 2:6-window front to the right (N). The rotunda has a corbelled parapet with ogival merlons and an inner parapet behind with flattened spear-shaped merlons and seimi-circular embrasures. Rotunda crowned by an octagon with a copper tent roof with ball finial and weathervane. Platband at first-floor level. The east front has a 2-tier canted bay in the centre and to the left; single-storey canted bays to left and right of centre. Ground floor has round-headed windows (C20 glazing with timber bars) in ogival frames with curly ogee hoodmoulds with a star at the apex. Canted bays have plain parapets. Recessed crosses in the front wall contain painted reliefs of thistles and apples in roundels. First-floor windows similar with spear motifs at the apex of the hoodmoulds. Central canted bay has a cast-iron balcony on brackets with diagonal braces and central decorated roundels. Parapet may originally have been decorated with pineapples (these survive on the left-hand bay window). Wall between windows decorated with Maltese crosses. 2nd-floor windows smaller but simialr: wall surface decorated with shields. Parapet on moulded corbels, the merlons decorated with incised crosses. To left of rotunda, a flight of curving steps up to a first-floor entrance. The left-hand wing, with a plain parapet, is in a stripped down version of the style. The right-hand wing appears to be completely C20 on the seaward front, but to the rear (W) there is a 5-bay elevation that is obviously Smith's with a parapet with ogival merlons and 2 octagonal turrets at the N end with spear-shaped battlementing. Ground-floor windows with ogival hoodmoulds and first-floor windows with shallow roughcast architraves with imitation keyblocks. The 3-storey and attic W wing has a mansard roof; coved eaves: ogee-headed attic dormer and windows with fancy stuccoed architraves of a flame-like design. The N side has seven 2nd-floor oriels on curly ogival arches with pendants. Unsuitable late C20 hotel porch across angle between rotunda and W wing. INTERIOR: Partially inspected. The ground-floor room in the rotunda retains its original plaster cornices and ceiling roses, quite delicate but of conventional design. First-floor room above said to retain similar detail. Original fireplaces may be concealed behind later plaster. c1903 stair with carved figures rising above the hand rail. Other features of interest may survive elsewhere. HISTORY: Smith died in 1873. In 1877 the house was bought by Paris Singer (Oldway Mansion qv). In 1902 it was sold and altered as a hotel. The West Country Studies Library, Exeter, holds a printed souvenir of the hotel, c1910, which records that decoration was by Coverdale and Co. of No.15, Palace Avenue, Paignton . Photographs show symmetrical low wings flanking the main block. Although very altered on the margins, the central core of the building is particularly interesting for its unusual design and details and the building makes an important contribution to the sea front at this end of Paignton.

Late C16 or earlier origins, alterations of the early C19 and c1880; C20 renovations. MATERIALS: Local red breccia rubble with modern pointing; asbestos slate roof, gabled at left end, peaked over right end tower; stacks with rendered shafts. PLAN: Main block has a single-depth, 3-room plan, although the position of the original cross passage is uncertain. A rear door survives to right of centre; the front door, to left of centre, is another possible position, with evidence for the position of a former stair opposite. 2 rear right lateral stacks, left end stack. Rear left heated wing at right-angles with an end stack. The house was thoroughly altered in the C19, the pitch of the roof changed and the first floor height raised. In c1880 the right-hand end of the house was raised to a 3-storey tower, typical of the late Italianate Torquay villas, but preserving the stump of the rear right-hand lateral stack. EXTERIOR: 2-storey main block, 3-storey tower. Asymmetrical 4:3-window front. The main block, to the left, has deep eaves. Late C20 lean-to porch with slated roof to left of centre. 6-panel door, the upper panels glazed, the lower panels fielded but with later panels applied on top. 4 ground and 3 first-floor plastic windows with diamond-leaded panes. Conservatory with plastic windows added to left end projects to the front. The 3-storey tower, to the right, has deep eaves on curved brackets. 2 plastic windows on the ground floor. The narrow first and 2nd floor windows are original. 3 first-floor square-headed one over one-pane horned sashes; 3 similar 2nd-floor round-headed windows. The right return of the tower preserves its original 2nd-floor round-headed sash windows. Windows on other elevations are late C20 plastic replacements. The rear elevation includes a boarded door under a pent roof with an adjacent pump. INTERIOR: Preserves a plank and muntin oak screen partition to the centre room from the left-hand room. Fireplace to centre room lateral stack with C20 chimney-piece, old fireplace behind discovered during renovations had no original lintel but bread oven opening preserved. Line of earlier, steeper, gabled roof noticed during renovations when the plaster was removed from the left gable end. HISTORY: Research by the owner in the PRO indicated a date of 1567 for the building. In c1919 it was bought by the Singer family and the estate was sold off in lots which were later developed.
