Description
Treswigga is a farmhouse with garden walls located to the southeast, dating from the late 16th century. It is constructed of stone rubble and features a slate roof with gable ends and large stone rubble end stacks. The farmhouse has a two-room layout with a through passage. The larger room, likely the hall kitchen, is on the right and may have originally included a stair turret next to the fireplace on the right gable end. The rear outshots were remodeled in the 20th century.
The exterior is two storeys high with an asymmetrical three-window front. On the left, there is a 19th-century sash window with margin glazing bars, a light casement, and a gabled stone rubble porch, while on the right, there is another 19th-century sash window with margin glazing bars. The first floor has two sash windows, with a 20th-century window to the left of the center. The granite inner door arch is four-centred with a hollow chamfer and partly eroded stops, and a similar arch is found at the rear. A straight joint in the masonry on the far right of the front and on the right gable end indicates the former position of the stair turret, which corresponds to a blocked doorway inside. There are remains of granite treads for the stair located directly to the east.
Inside, the right-hand room features a fireplace with a chamfered lintel and a cloam oven in what may have been an earlier smoking chamber. To the right of the fireplace, there is a blocked four-centred arch with a deep chamfer and straight cut stops, likely from the stair projection that has since been demolished. The ceiling beams and roof trusses were replaced in the 19th and 20th centuries. The stone rubble garden wall at the front includes several pieces of dressed granite.
