Building and Enclosure, Trevessa, Towednack, Zennor


Description:  A small dry stone built structure, now ruined, omitted from obth 1876 and modern OS maps, but presumably roughly contemporary with the other buildings in the vicinity (94809-94812), i.e. mid-19th century. A shallow gable is visible at the east end and a partially blocked door at the west end of long south wall. No fireplace or window visible although heavily overgrown. Approximately 3.4m long EW and 2.6m wide internally.
A small curvilinear enclosure of single-stone walling surrounds the building and is attached to the dry stone wall of a croft boundary to the west.
Function of both building and enclosure are unclear (see 94808).
