The photograph opposite was possibly taken around 1910 when the house was owned by James' son Richard Gynn Trease (who was living at
Fern Grove) and occupied by Sidney Symons as tenant and
used as a corner store for tea and other groceries. The signs on the house (not decipherable in this rendition of the photograph) read:-
• LIPTON'S TEA
• GP CONFECTIONERY TEA (George Payne reknowned then for his tea and "Poppets")
• SYMONS LICENSED TO SELL TOBACCO
The house is now known as 'Trelawney House', Warbstow Cross. It is thought the new name dates from around 1918 when Richard's son Richard Owen Trelawney
(Lawn) Trease took up residence there after he got married. Lawn stayed there until his death in 1956. With his death the family
blacksmith business created 120 years earlier by James ended. Two years later Lawn's wife died and with her death the Trease name in
Warbstow died out.
No photographs of the forge have been found to date.
