Foresters Hall, 1 Pike Street, Liskeard
Grade II Listed Hall. Visit Liskeard contradicts the listing date of the hall and tells us 'Called Forester’s Hall, it was designed by one of Liskeard’s foremost architects, Henry Rice. The building was built in 1835....' At the time it housed the East Cornwall Savings Bank and The Liskeard Literary and Scientific Institution. Rice then went on to do the redesign in 1861. The 1856 'History of the Borough of Liskeard and its vicinity' informs us also that the bank was established in 1818 and in 1835 built the offices 'in Pike Street or Tavern Hill at a cost of £320.' This information being repeated in Kelly's 1893 Directory. Over the years it has been home to many businesses including the Devon and Cornwall Film Company and a wigmakers. The building fell into dereliction in the 1990s but was renovated by the Town Council and the Museum opened in 2002'.

Former Webb's Hotel, The Parade, Liskeard
Grade II Listed hotel of 1833 with 'R.W.' on rainwater head on extension to rear. By J Foulston of Plymouth. It was abandoned and derelict in 1989, but a property developer purchased it in 2001 with plans to return it to its original state. Fire crews were called in October 2003 to the empty hotel to a fire thought to have been started deliberately. It was reopened in 2005 as a mixed use facility incorporating office and residential elements and is now the offices of the Cornish Times. A search of my directories found; 1844-1852 Robert Webb (& posting house); 1856 J B Brown (& posting house); 1873-1897 J W Chegwidden, manager Webb's Hotel Co. Ltd.; 1902 Miss Williams, manageress Webb's Hotel Co. Ltd.; 1906-1914 Miss Lockyer, manageress Webb's Hotel Co. Ltd.
