Trevor House

Trevor House, originally called Glynde Farm, is a building with parts dating back to the 17th century or earlier. The central portion features a north wall that is tile hung, with a tiled roof and casement windows. The north-west wing, dating from the 18th century, has a ground floor of red brick and is stuccoed above, with a tiled roof and sash windows that retain their glazing bars. The north-east wing is from the early 19th century and is completely stuccoed, topped with a slate roof. The west wing, also from the 18th century, is made of red brick and has a tiled roof. The building stands two storeys high with an attic, featuring five windows facing north-east and three facing north-west. Notably, John Ellman, an agriculturalist known for improving the breed of Southdown sheep, lived here from 1780 to 1829. Field-Marshal Lord Wolseley occupied the house from around 1895 to 1902 while he served as Commander-in-Chief of the Army.
