Abstract: |
The results of a heritage assessment carried out by South West Archaeology Ltd. (SWARCH) for Trevedda Farmhouse, a Grade II Listed building, before a programme of proposed renovation works. Trevedda Farmhouse is a complex E-shaped plan with a one and a half storey rear service wing to the north-west and to the east flank of the range, running downslope, a series of attached lean-to sheds. The farmhouse is flanked by a 19th century stable to the south-east and a large threshing barn to the north-east, there are several small outbuildings and ruined outbuildings to the north, north-west and west. Trevedda is likely medieval in origin, the north-east block and west cross-wing being 16th or 17th century additions to an earlier building which has largely been lost in all but footprint within the expanded complex. The current presenting character of the house is of 'polite' 19th century style, having received a grandiose phase of expansion and rationalisation in and around 1840. Whilst the house is an important heritage asset which positively contributes to the national historic building catalogue it has at the core of its narrative a tale of almost continual adaption and change to fit its owners needs and there is therefore felt to be flexibility for further change if development is to be empathetic and sensitive to the character of the building and to respect its surviving historic features and the narrative which survives within the fabric. |
