Shown on 1901 1:2500 OS map, but unclear exactly which building. Appears to be end building of left hand range in lane off Church Street, through archway (Tavistock Motors on Streetview). Unable to confirm if current building is original or replacement. Visited 2012 - end building appears to be old fire station
