DAVIDSTOW TREVIVIAN
SX 18 NE
2/144 Lower Trevivian Farmhouse
-

GV II

Farmhouse. Possibly early C17. Stone rubble with granite quoins. Slate roof with
hipped end on left and gable end on right. Lower range with gable end on right.
Parallel range to rear with hipped end on left and gable end on right. Granite axial
stack to left of centre of main range.
Plan: Original plan uncertain and it is possible that the house has been partly
demolished. The earlier range appears to be of 2 room and cross or through passage
plan with the ground sloping down to the right. The left hand room is heated by an
axial stack which backs on to the higher left hand side of the passage. The house
appears to have continued to the right, part of the earlier building incorporated in
the lower range on right. In circa late C19 or early C20 a parallel range of 2 room
plan was added to the rear.
Exterior: 2 storeys. Regular 3 window front. C19 1-light casement and triple sash
to left of rendered C20 porch with C19 6-pane sash to right. Above 2 C20 2-light
casements and early C19 hornless 20 pane sash to right. In lower range to right,
door and dressed granite quoins indicating end of main range to right.
Interior: not accessible. An interior inspection may be helpful to analyse the
development of the plan.
