Description
The lion sculptures flanking the front garden path at Trerice are two freestanding garden ornaments in the form of crouching lions, dating from the 16th century. Made of granite, each lion has its front paws grasping its breast, with a tail looped over its back. Originally found at Kenegie in Gulval, these lions were claimed by Henderson to have been at Trewardreva, Newlyn East, and after spending 150 years at Lifton, Devon, they were returned to Trerice by the Trust in 1973.
