Description

The farmhouse at Tregonebris dates from the 18th century, with extensions added around the middle of the 19th century. The front of the building is faced with dressed coursed granite, while the mid-19th century front is stuccoed, with the remaining parts of the building being granite rubble with granite dressings. The roofs are covered in scantle slate, with a hipped roof over the front, stuccoed brick chimneys on the side walls, and an 18th-century granite chimney on the rear (west) gable end.

The house is arranged in an L-shape. A double-depth-plan addition was built at the front, creating two front rooms flanking a central hall that leads to what was probably a stair hall between service rooms to the rear. Behind the right-hand side of the house is a single-room-plan wing and the remainder of the original 18th-century house. A low, two-storey wing, possibly a wash-house or kitchen, was added in the 19th century.

The symmetrical three-window east front includes a late 19th-century canted bay window on the left. It features a granite plinth and rusticated quoins, a moulded stucco hood over the right-hand window, a moulded stucco sill string, and moulded, eared first-floor architraves. Projecting eaves crown the front. The central doorway has a 19th-century four-panel door with a single-pane overlight. The windows are late 19th-century four-pane horned sashes.

The rear wing (originally the south front) retains two windows from what was probably a symmetrical or nearly symmetrical three-window front with a central doorway. The doorway and the narrow window above now adjoin the angle with the 19th-century house. A wide left-hand window opening has a flat arch with a projecting keystone, and a narrower window opening sits above. A late 19th or 20th-century door with overlight and matching horned sashes are also visible. The interior has not been inspected.
