Granite and killas rubble with granite dressings. Scantle slate roofs with brick chimneys over the gable ends plus lateral stack, rear left. Some C17 hand-made crested clay ridge tiles over the rear wing. Cast-iron ogee gutters. Plan: irregular L-shaped plan. Probably originally a 3-room through passage plan, extended in the C17 with service wing at roughly right angles behind the higher end room, left. The through passage was flanked by 2 thick stone walls but the left hand wall was removed recently (1986). The front wall and gable end left of the passage, the right hand gable end, part of the rear wall and the left hand rear corner of the wing were rebuilt circa late C19. Exterior : 2 storeys. Overall 7 window north front:, 4 window front of Trevenner Farmhouse built forward, left, and 3 window front of Trevenner Cottage, right. Trevenner Farmhouse has doorway left of middle. Reused C16 fragments over the doorway and left of the doorway including the outer frame of the left hand window. The fragments include : 3 light mullioned window heads or sills, jambstones, hoodmoulds, corbels and 4-centred arched window heads. Trevenner Cottage, right, has the original square-headed doorway of the former through passage, left (now blocked). Present doorway, left of middle. Rear of the passage is a jambstone with pyramid stop. The rear wing has 2 C17 windows with chamfered frames and stooling for central mullions, otherwise C18 remodelled openings. Chamfered lintel over blocked window opening in rear gable end. Interior : C16 features: partly blocked corbelled fireplace over right-hand through passage wall serving chamber, right (now with C19 iron grate). C17 features: in the wing a chamfered and stopped cross beam and 2 trusses with pegged lap-dovetailed collar joints. Lime-washed pegged lower roof structure in Trevenner Cottage probably C18. An early house, rare in this part of Cornwall, (that is a house with identifiable early features) and though remodelled in the C19, much early fabric and some interesting details survive.
