room is larger and both are heated from gable end stacks. Between the 2 rooms there
is an entrance passage leading to a dog-leg staircase at the back in the integral
outshut. The outshut also contains the kitchen with a side stack behind the right
hand room and a smaller dairy or pantry behind the left hand room. In the C20 a
single storey extension was added to the rear right behind the kitchen.

In 1820 C.S. Gilbert in his survey of Cornwall describes the since demolished mansion
Carwythenack as "lately much improved and the plantation, walks and waterfalls
considerably enlarged and beautified". Carwythenack farmhouse was probably built as
part of these improvements.
Carwythenack was formerly in Constantine parish before the parish boundaries were
changed.
