In the Millfleet Area.
The Greenland Fishery House here on Bridge Street was built in 1605 for merchant and Mayor, John Atkin.
The name it now carries comes from its use as a public house during the period when the whaling industry
was a major contributor to the town's prosperity ~ not to mention it's smells!
It is a large and important building on three floors with jettying to each floor. The top floor is the most odd:
it looks like a gallery, but is never tall enough. There are three lovely oriel windows in the facade.
