Tregenna Castle, St Ives

Tregenna Castle, St Ives

However, despite the 1878 date of the present hotel, I add Davies Gilbert's writing of 1838. Mr. George Blewett, the very considerable merchant had a house at Tregenna, near St. Ive's, built by Mr. Samuel Stephens a few years before [c1770] , under the direction of Mr. Wood, an architect from Bath, who had constructed most of the splendid works in that city. Hence the castellations. How much of the present is original or exists at all?
