Description
Trewanta Hall is a farmhouse dating to 1722, although it likely has earlier origins. It is constructed of roughly coursed ashlar stone on the front elevation and stone rubble elsewhere, with a slate roof featuring gable ends. The stacks are of stone rubble, with a rendered shaft to a side lateral stack at the rear.
The original layout is uncertain. The front range includes a central entrance and cross passage, flanked by two principal rooms, each heated by an end stack. A 18th-century stair projection extends from the rear of the cross passage, adjoined by a dairy on the left and a one-room kitchen wing on the right. It is thought that the rear wing and right-hand room may be remnants of an earlier house, remodeled in 1722.
The two-storey, symmetrical front elevation has five windows and a central 19th-century glazed porch. The window openings have dressed stone arches, and most of the windows are original 18th-century mullion and transom windows. Two 20th-century replacement windows match the originals on the left, while two 18th-century windows remain on the right. A datestone reading "1722" is positioned above the entrance. Five 18th-century windows are visible on the first floor.
A three-light granite mullion window illuminates the left-hand side wall of the dairy, and a large four-light granite mullion window lights the stair projection on the rear. A 19th-century outshut runs along the right-hand side, with access to the kitchen wing via a hollow chamfered granite frame with curved diagonal stops.
Inside, the left-hand room, likely a parlour, retains an 18th-century two-panel door and a small fireplace with a roughly chamfered granite surround. The right-hand room features a 20th-century grate, concealing a very large unmoulded granite lintel that originally spanned the room and extended above first-floor level. The wing to the rear right has a blocked fireplace. The 18th-century stair, located behind the cross passage, has square newels with small flat bun finials, stick balusters, and a deeply moulded, ramped rail.
