Tre-Wil

No. 19 Tre-Wil is a town house located on Broad Street in Penryn. It dates from the 18th century but is built on a 17th-century site and was refronted and remodeled in the late 19th century. The front features rusticated stucco on rubble, with a scantle slate roof hidden behind a parapet. Some 17th-century crested clay ridge tiles were salvaged during repairs. The building has a single-depth range at the front and a two-room plan wing at a right angle to the rear left. It is two storeys high and has a three-window range. The late 19th-century windows are six-pane horned sashes. There is a pilastered doorway on the right with a moulded entablature and an early 19th-century six-panel door, where the top four panels are glazed.

The rear wing includes a wide 18th-century three-light part sash window with thick glazing bars on the side wall, along with two 18th-century sashes featuring thick glazing bars on the ground and first floors of the rear end, although the lower half of the ground-floor window is a 20th-century copy.

Inside, the house retains many interesting features from the 18th and 19th centuries, including fielded dado panelling and a moulded ceiling cornice in the front room, as well as similar panelling in part of the chamber above. The middle room has ceiling joists, and there is a pantry and other cupboards leading from it. A blocked window with wooden shutters and several two-panel doors are also present. The centre chamber of the rear wing features an 18th-century chimneypiece with an early 19th-century hob grate, along with two 19th-century fireplaces. There is a moulded chair rail in the entrance passage and the rear chamber, and a plank-and-muntin partition separates the front chambers. The 18th-century roof structures include evidence of a former lower roof level in the front range.
