9/49 Trebah, game larder immediately
- west of Trebah (house)

GV II


Game larder. Circa mid to late C19. Red brick with timber louvred sides and a
pyramidal hipped slate roof with lead rolls to the hips.
Plan: A small square-plan building with a doorway on the south side.
Exterior: Single storey. Square corner piers of red brick supporting the pyramidal
slate roof. Between the corner the sides are louvred and have slate cills and slate
panels below. On the north and south the sides are recessed back from the corner
piers, the south side having a central louvred door. The pyramidal roof has a small
square louvred lantern with a hipped slate roof topped by a little conical zinc
ventilator.
Interior: The floor has slate flags but there are no shelves. The roof structure is
complete with chamfered rafters, collars and tie-beams presumably from which the game
was hung.
The game larder is situated in the garden to the east of Trehah House which was the
seat of Charles Fox, a Quaker, who built the house in the early C19 and planted a
fine shrub garden from circa 1830 to 1868 in the steep valley in front which leads
down to the shore of the Helford River estuary.
Formerly situated in Constantine parish before the parish boundary was changed.
