With the bus stop being right outside the station, and if as a group we are happy collectively to fall foul of the minimum connection time by one minute, we next board the 1439/1539 Stagecoach South Wales service 26 to Whitchurch (Three Elms), arriving there at 1717/1817 on Wednesday.

Staying strictly to the rules means the later bus was used therefore we next take the 18.50 Stagecoach South Wales service 132 alighting at Porth Interchange at 19.43 on Wednesday

We wait a little for the 12:15 Stagecoach Southwest route 93 to Dartmouth (Pontoon), arriving at 13:13 on Friday.
Being very selective here as I know one of the two Kingswear ferry terminals has no other onward connections, we next board the 1330 Dartmouth Steam Railway and River Boat Company service to Kingswear Lower Ferry Terminal, arriving there at 1335 on Friday (the one adjacent to the railway station).
