Description

The building is a cartshed and piggery located immediately northwest of Tremedda Farmhouse, dating from the late 19th century or possibly around 1910. It is constructed from granite rubble with granite dressings and features grouted scantle slate roofs. The cartshed has a hipped roof on the left, while the piggery on the right has gable ends and a brick chimney over the left gable end. The overall plan is L-shaped, with the piggery containing four pig sties and an integral swill kitchen at the left end. Adjoining the piggery is an implement shed, and the cartshed or engine house projects at right angles from the front. The building is single-storey with doorways at the front, featuring old ledged and braced doors. The structure is part of an unspoiled coastal hamlet set within the ancient field system of this area of Cornwall.
