SW 72 NE MAWNAN HELFORD PASSAGE

9/99 Heyle (Nak Centre) -

GV II*

Country house, now in use as a residential school and home for handicapped children. Dated 1914. The architect is not known, however the original architect's drawings are said to be in the possession of the owner. Built for Mr and Miss Cooper (brother and sister). Shale rubble with granite dressings. Grouted scantle slate hipped roofs, some with gablets. Shale rubble stacks with moulded granite caps. The rear wing is slate-hung on the first floor. A large house in a vernacular revival Tudor style. Plan: The main house is the south-facing range with a service wing at the rear of the left hand end returning as a housekeeper's cottage and garage on the north side of a rear courtyard. The entrance to the house is on the right hand east side giving access to an axial passage along the back of the main range which has a large drawing room at the left west end partly contained in the projecting left hand wing, the hall at the centre with a loggia in front between the left and right hand projecting wings; the right hand wing contains the sitting room with the stairhall behind adjacent to the right side entrance. The axial passage along the back of the main range leads to the service wing behind the drawing room at the left end. The service wing returns as the housekeeper's cottage forming the north side of a rear courtyard which is enclosed on the fourth right side by a low wall. The housekeeper's cottage range continues to the right as a garage range facing the entrance drive at the right side of the house. Exterior: 2 storeys. All the windows to the main house and the ground floor of the service wing have chamfered granite mullions and leaded iron casements. The south garden front has projecting wings left and right, the ends of which are advanced with hipped roofs over and 5-light mullion windows, the ground floor with transoms. Set back between the wings two 4-light windows on the ground and first floors, the ground floor with transoms and a central doorway set behind an open-fronted loggia with one central round pier supporting a timber wall-plate and a scantle slate roof with a lead flat. This section of the south front is symmetrical but to the left of the left hand wing the main roof is carried down over an open-fronted (now glazed) verandah in the angle with the wing and the main range which has a gable end, its centre projecting with a 5-light mullion window on the ground and first floors, the ground floor with transoms. At the back of this end a stack corbelled out from the first floor with gableted set-offs and a circular shaft with a moulded granite cap. The right hand (east) return of the main range is the entrance side, its asymmetrical elevation is dominated by a gabled stack with an oval section (round ended oblong) shaft with a moulded granite cap; to the right of the stack a tall mullion-transom stair window and below to the right the main entrance has a depressed 2-centred chamfered arch dying into the tapered deeply chamfered jambs; over the arch a slate hoodmould. Set back inside the porch a chamfered doorway with a studded plank door; on the lintel over the door the date 1914 and the Coopers' monogram. To the right of the entrance a low wall steps down with slate capping; it screens the service yard behind the main range. The roof at the back of the main range facing the yard is carried down to lower eaves level and has 2 hipped dormers. The service wing and housekeeper's cottage form the other 2 sides of the yard and have slate hung first floor elevations with 2 and 3-light wooden mullion windows and granite mullion windows on the ground floor. The back range (housekeeper's cottage) is continued as a single storey garage range with a hipped slate roof with a weather-vane, and a screen wall in front with slate capping. Interior: The modest interior has only a few alterations such as the insertion of partitions in the drawing room and between the hall and stairwell. The simple staircase has chamfered stick balusters and square newels with finials. The hall is panelled and has a Tudor-arched granite fireplace. The sitting room has a wooden chimney-piece with a bracketted shelf. The service wing has a butler's pantry with glazed cupboards, servants' staircase and a complete set of servants' bells in the corridor. Heyle was formerly situated in Constantine parish before the parish boundaries were changed.
