Trewyn House, Grade II* listed house in Crucorney, Wales.
Description
Trewyn House is a Grade II* listed residence built from red sandstone with Welsh slate roofing, featuring two floors organized across seven bays with multiple sash windows and stone detailing throughout. The structure sits within a landscape of terraced gardens enclosed by stone walls, iron gates, and stone steps that compartmentalize the grounds.
History
Construction began in 1692 when the Delahaye family established the residence in what was then Herefordshire territory. Major alterations occurred during the 1840s and 1870s when the Rosher family owned and modified the structure.
Culture
The name Trewyn reflects Welsh origins and remains tied to the local landscape. Inside, visitors can see how different centuries of decoration and furnishings have layered together, creating rooms that feel lived-in rather than frozen in time.
Practical
The residence sits in elevated terrain surrounded by stepped gardens and stone boundaries that require careful navigation. Visitors should be prepared for uneven ground and changing elevation levels throughout the property.
Did you know?
A rare octagonal brick dovecote from the early 1700s stands on the grounds with compartments for several hundred nesting birds. This outbuilding carries its own Grade II* listing and reveals how rural estates managed food production centuries ago.
