Full description

The present house at Trerice is substantially the work of the Arundell family, and dates to AD 1570, though it may incorporate some remains of the earlier mansion. The north wing was demolished in 1860 and rebuilt in 1954. As 'one of the most charming and distinguised of the smaller Elizabethan houses of the west country', it has been fully illustrated and described by many authorities.
Adams notes that a 1650 survey of Trerice includes 'one chapel chamber'. This may suggest that by the C17th, the medieval chapel (25053.2) had been abandoned and an oratory set up within the house (B5)
