Abstract:
HE Projects were commissioned to carry out an historic building record of the barn at Trehan, near Saltash located at NGR SX 40460 58030. The record was carried out as one of the conditions for planning consent in advance of the conversion of the building to become a dwelling. The barn is a two-storey, early 19th century threshing barn with a shippon (cow house) at ground floor level. Evidence from the Tithe Apportionment c1840 indicates that all the land in Trehan was part of the Buller estate at this date and occupied by John Williams. Between c1880 and c1907 the barn was converted to a bank barn by building up the external ground level on the north side to allow first floor access from outside. At the same time as the insertion of the bank, an engine house was added to the western end of the north wall to provide power to drive machinery (such as a threshing machine) inside the barn. Not long after (between c1907 and 1914) a single storey root house was added as a lean-to structure at the eastern end of the building for storage of root crops for animal fodder. Up until recent years the building has been in use as a farm building essentially still functioning as a cow house. The arched door openings in the south elevation of the barn are of a vernacular style seen in the Tamar Valley area, but not noted as a typical building style widely used in other areas of Cornwall.
