Description
Little Trebreak is a house dating from the early 18th century, constructed of rendered and painted stone rubble and cob, topped with a rag slate roof that has a hipped end on the left and a gable end on the right. There is a stone rubble end stack on the right side. The building has a two-room plan, featuring a smaller dairy originally on the left and a larger hall kitchen on the right, which is heated by the end stack. The entrance is located to the left of center, leading directly into the hall-kitchen, with a lath and plaster partition separating the two rooms. In the 19th century, a service outshot containing a dairy was added to the rear right, and a staircase was inserted in the original dairy.
The exterior is two storeys high with an asymmetrical two-window front. The entrance, located to the left of center, has a 19th-century door and is flanked by two 19th or 20th-century casement windows, with two similar casements on the first floor. There is a 19th-century lean-to outshut on the left end and a 20th-century glazed porch across the front. The interior remains complete and unaltered, retaining its original partitions.
