Description
Lower Trevedran Farmhouse comprises two adjoining farmhouses, dating to the 17th century, with extensions and remodelling in the 18th and early 19th centuries. The building is constructed of granite rubble with granite dressings, some granite ashlar, and some cob. The left-hand house has a wheat reed thatched roof, while the right-hand house has a grouted scantle slate hipped roof. Chimneys are made of granite and brick. The original house likely had a two-room plan with a lobby entrance and staircase between the rooms. In the 18th century, a wing was added in front of and beside the left-hand side, and later in the 18th century, another wing was added in front of the right-hand side. This right-hand wing was extended around the early 19th century and now functions as a separate house, creating an overall U-shaped plan. The original north front features a 17th-century chamfered doorway, now fitted with a 12-pane casement, positioned between the two 18th-century wings, with a blocked window above the doorway. The left-hand wing has a two-window front facing into the courtyard; the right-hand window is blocked, and the left-hand window opening contains a pair of hornless circa early 19th-century sashes with glazing bars to the lower light, while the first-floor windows are circa late 19th or 20th-century 6-pane horned sashes. A circa early 20th-century thatched entrance porch is located midway along the left-hand wall of this wing, and a small blocked first-floor window is visible in the front gable. The rear wall has 18th or 19th-century openings with two windows on each floor, fitted with horned sashes. The right-hand wing has a 20th-century door and windows set within 18th and 19th-century openings. The interior remains uninspected.
