Polapit Tamar House, now a Grade II Listed Building, was built in 1866 for the
Coode family who owned the land round about, in the Tamar Valley to the
north of Werrington. The original structure (right side, in the picture)
dates from 1866 and the remainder (left side) from 1903. It is said
that Mr R C Coode commissioned the extension for his daughter's
twenty-first birthday; its principal room is an oak-panelled ballroom
with ornately carved chimney-pieces. This picture was taken from the lawns of the garden below the terrace.
We rented the major portion of this house including the ballroom, (but not the upper portion which was a separate flat) for just over 2 years. The following pages will be an attempt to give you a guided tour of this lovely old house.
