Description

Wilrena is an 18th-century house located in a row on West Looe Hill, West Looe. It features a roughcast render on rubble and has a steep dry slate roof. The building has a shallow-depth plan and stands two storeys high with a symmetrical three-window front. The first floor has late 19th-century four-pane horned sash windows, while the ground floor has four-pane hornless sashes, which are likely early 19th-century sashes with some glazing bars removed. The central doorway is adorned with a late 19th-century four-panel door that has chamfered and stopped panels, along with later glazing in the top panels. The interior has not been inspected.
