Come-to-Good Friends Meeting House, Kea - Cornwall (UA)

Come-to-Good Quaker Meeting House is a Grade I listed building in an isolaed rural site. It was finished in 1710 and, apart from a small C20 thatched west porch, remains intact. Painted cob on stone rubble footings. Steep wheat reed thatched roof, half-hipped to left, west, and sweeping lower to east over later linhay. The thatch now leaks on the north pitch and needs renewal. There is insect damage to some of the pine internal fittings.
