Description

Tremedda Cottage is a small house dating from the 18th century, with an extension added around 1910. It is constructed of granite rubble with granite dressings and features a scantle slate roof. There is an original dressed granite stack located over the right-hand (north) gable end and cast-iron ogee gutters. The original layout consisted of two rooms with an entrance between them, but the extension in circa 1910 altered the rear wall to create an L-shaped plan, adding a porch in the inner rear angle.

The cottage is two storeys tall with a slightly irregular two-window east front. There is a partly blocked original doorway to the right of the middle, with a window above it, and other smaller windows, all featuring 4-pane horned sashes from around 1910. It is possible that this elevation was the rear of the original house. The circa 1910 dressed stone porch is located in the rear angle, and there is a two-panel inner door with bolection mouldings from the same period. Tremedda Cottage is part of an unspoiled coastal hamlet situated within the ancient field system of this area of Cornwall.
