Description
Tredudwell Manor is a manor house dating from around the 17th century, with remodels completed in the late 18th century. The building is constructed of rubble stone and features a slate roof with hipped ends and rear projecting wings. It has large rendered stacks on the north and south slopes of the projecting wings. The layout is U-shaped, with rear wings, a central passage, and a staircase located centrally at the back. The manor is two storeys tall with an attic.
The west front is symmetrical and has four windows, all with crown glass. The ground floor features four 12-pane timber sash windows that extend from floor to ceiling, along with a central partly glazed door that is sheltered by a 20th-century porch with rendered walls and a hipped slate roof. The first floor has three square 16-pane sash windows. A modillion eaves cornice runs along the top, and there are three full dormers under hipped slate roofs, with the center dormer containing four lights.
The east front is almost symmetrical and features a tall, narrow staircase window with a round arched head and glazing bars that extends from the ground floor to the attic, situated centrally under the slate sloping roof. The rear wings project forward symmetrically, with the left ground floor wing containing a 12-pane sash and the right wing having a 16-pane sash in a partly blocked opening with brick dressings and a segmental arch. The first floor has a 12-pane sash on the left and a 16-pane sash on the right, along with two full dormers under hipped slate roofs.
There is a large buttress on the left side of the south wing and a later buttress on the left side of the north wing. A lean-to structure is located at the north end beneath a catslide roof. The staircase, dating from the early to mid-17th century, features a closed string with a square newel, a moulded rail, and turned balusters. The doorcases flanking the staircase hall have moulded frames, while other doorcases and plasterwork on the ground floor are mainly from the late 18th century and later. The upper floors were not inspected. Tredudwell Manor has been the seat of the Trevanions, Eveleighs, and later Canon Howell, and was described as a "commodious and genteel residence, surrounded with well-cultivated lands" in Joseph Polsue Lake's Parochial History of the County of Cornwall, published between 1867 and 1873.
