Notes:
Pendarves House itself has vanished entirely...
Pendarves House itself has vanished entirely. It was built in the
Georgian period, added to and expanded before it eventually being
completely demolished in 1955. But according to Hitchens the house was
‘erected on a pleasing eminence, which commands an extensive view over
the western part of the county. The southern front overlooks a large
piece of artificial water which considerably adds to the elegance of the
whole’. That large piece of water was almost certainly the boating lake
which does remain to this day and is now a haven for water fowl.
In the hayday of the estate the gardens were extensive and
well-maintained of course and only traces of that can be seen now. There
was once a cave-like grotto, as well as the earliest known ha-ha in
Cornwall and numerous species of trees and shrubs
It is said that Edward WWS Pendarves did much to improve the gardens
when he took over the estate, even getting a mention in the Gardener’s
Magazine of 1837. The boat-house on the edge of the lake still stands, there is a elegant
arched bridge and gateposts near the entrance, a huge tunnel of
rhododendrons and small granite footbridges with broken down metal
railings crossing the streams within the woodland itself.
