Summary edit
| Description |
English: Royal Dart Hotel, Kingswear Built in the 1860s as a hotel "providing accommodation for passengers waiting to sail to South Africa and elsewhere. The hotel occupied the site of the previous Plume of Feathers Inn and here the Royal Dart Yacht Club used to meet until its own club house was built next to Kittery Court. The proprietors of the inn adopted the name Royal Dart Hotel by which it is still known." http://www.kingswear-devon.co.uk/history.htm "During the Second World War the hotel became HMS Cicala and headquarters of the British 15th Destroyer Flotilla. Journeys were made from there to the northern beaches of Brittany, landing agents and equipment for the French Resistance and bringing back escaping allied soldiers and airmen. The Free French Navy operated motor launches and motor torpedo boats from Kingswear .." Kingswear |
