History

The Port Admiral Hotel was built by Robert Sanders and opened in 1849.[1] The hotel was originally named the 'Railway Hotel' to reflect a proposed horse drawn train line.[2] However, subsequent operator Charles Calton decided to rename it after a pub he had previously operated, giving the hotel its current name.[1]
