The Coastguard  buildings were built in the mid 1850's,after the harbour became  important  for its export of Cornish China Clay, quarried at nearby Tregonning Hill,and local potatoes and produce,( importing coal  and timber for the Tin Mines in Breage and St.Sithney, Limestone for the Lime Kilns on the harbour side),The harbour became famous for its boat building skills for strong wooden boats which ended up as far away as Hudson Bay.The fishing industry also became important and this developed into the salting down of pilchards,and  canning and smoking of fish,as well as net and rope making industries.
