The Tremayne Hall, with its distinctive clock tower, stands at the centre of the village of Mylor Bridge between Mylor Stores and the Butcher. It is a solidly built, granite block, Grade 2 listed building that has been in use since it was built in 1827. It was a poorhouse at first, providing a home for the numerous local paupers, but later went on to become a village school, a church hall and finally a village hall. The name Tremayne is due to ownership of the building by the Tremayne family, from whom the building is leased at the present time. The Tremayne family inherited the building from the local benefactor and landowner, Sir Charles Lemon of Carclew Estate, in 1868.
The Tremayne Hall Management Committee has worked to restore the old building so it will be a valuable asset for the village as a Community Centre.
The plans include an extension which will provide extra meeting rooms and an Archive Centre, run by the Mylor History Group. Following an intensive campaign to raise funds, the building work was completed in October 2007. Several grants were obtained, in particular the Heritage Lottery Fund, but local donations and fund-raising have also played an important part and will continue to do so as we undertake the use and ongoing maintenance of the building.
