Description

TRENEGLOS
SX 28 NW
7/210 Treneglos Farmhouse
-
GV II

Farmhouse. Circa late C16 or early C17. Rendered and painted stone rubble. Slate
roof with hipped end on left and gable end on right. Brick shaft to projecting stone
rubble rear lateral stack.
Plan: Original plan uncertain. The house was probably of at least 2 room and
through passage plan which was remodelled in the C19. The ground slopes down to left
and the original entrance was probably originally to the left of the existing
entrance leading into a through passage; the rear doorway has a C17 granite arch. The
higher right hand room is heated by a rear lateral stack and the small projection
between the lateral stack and passage may contain the remains of a newel stair. The
lower end has been partly remodelled to form service rooms, the room below the
passage heated by an axial stack with a dairy beyond. In the mid C19 a wing of one-
room plan was added to the rear of the passage and lower end.
Exterior: Regular 1:3 window front. C20 single storey extension added across front
and entrance with dairy window to left. Three C19 2-light casements on first floor.
Lean-to outshut to left with plank door on ground floor and one light casement on
first floor.
Interior: The ceilings are plastered and the hall fireplace has been blocked with a
C20 grate. It is probable that the earlier features have been covered over and care
should be taken in any future alteration to the farmhouse.
