Carclew House, English country house ruins in Mylor, Cornwall, Great Britain
The central granite structure of Carclew House presents an Ionic portico and two-story walls with preserved cornices and window openings.
William Lemon, a merchant, acquired the estate in 1730 and transformed the mansion with Palladian elements, including colonnades and pavilions, until completion in 1750.
The building reflects the architectural preferences of wealthy 18th-century British merchants through its incorporation of classical Palladian design principles.
The ruins of Carclew House require immediate structural repairs and vegetation removal due to their placement on the Heritage at Risk register.
A fire in 1934 transformed this grand country house into ruins, with local residents later using portions of the structure as building materials.
