Description

Treholford is a late 18th century house constructed of stone rubble and ashlar, originally colour washed. It has a shallow-pitched hipped roof covered in Welsh slate, with overhanging eaves and slender ashlar stacks to the ends and ridge. The house was initially three bays wide, with sash windows in reveals and narrow sills. The left bay has been altered to two storeys to connect with a later wing, and now features two large sash windows with slender glazing bars, 6/6 to the first floor and 8/8 to the ground. The centre and right bays retain 3/3 pane sashes to the top floor, 3/3 horned sashes to the first floor, and French windows at ground floor level replacing a former central front door and a sash window to the right.

To the left of the main frontage is an early 19th century wing, its roof hidden behind a parapet and moulded cornice. The main entrance is a roughly central doorway with a deep, later remodelled ashlar porch. To the right is a two-storey semicircular bay with tripartite curved sashes to the first floor and an altered window below. A platband separates the storeys, and windows above the door and to the left are 6/6 pane sashes; the ground floor window to the left has been altered to a French window.

The frontage overlooking the lake includes a similarly curved two-storey bay with two large sash windows on each level, providing varied views, and a light well to the cellar below. A further bay to the left has 6/6 pane sashes on both floors, separated by a platband. The rear elevation features a further curved two-storey bay with 6/6 pane sash windows on each floor, a long 4/4 pane staircase sash, further 8/8 pane sash windows, and a double 6/6 pane sash to the left. An attached hipped roof wing, containing 8/8 pane sashes, extends to what was the stable and coachhouse, which has 10/15 pane hoppers and boarded doors. A side elevation of the older house features 6/6 pane sash windows with tooled stone surrounds; one is a remodelled doorway. A wing to the rear includes a remodelled carriage arch.

The interior largely retains the plan established during a remodelling in 1837, and features many late 18th and early 19th century fittings, including shutters, panelled reveals and soffits, 6-panelled doors and contemporary glass in the sashes. The staircase rises from the main hall of the 1837 wing. The stable wing, now incorporated into the house, retains much of its original stall panelling.
