Wellhouse 150 Metres To North Of Trelawne Lodge

The Wellhouse, now used as a store, was built in 1840 for Letitia Trelawney as part of the Trelawney Estate. It is constructed of stone rubble and features a corbelled roof with gable ends, moulded stone eaves, a moulded granite ridge, and granite ball finials on the gable ends. The building has a rectangular plan and includes an entrance in the gabled end, which has a dressed stone segmental arch that is recessed on the inner side to accommodate a plank door. Above the entrance is a small slit and a carved datestone inscribed with "T L T 1840." There is also a small slit on the rear gable end. Inside, there is a slate floor with a well hole that is obscured by coal dust, and the walls are plastered. The Wellhouse is situated on the northwest side of the earlier west entrance to Trelawne House. It is not marked on the 1840 Tithe Apportionment Map, suggesting it was likely built after that survey.
