Author Tim Le Grice was born in 1942, not at Trereife but in London during the ‘Blitz’ – a word that perhaps describes much of his subsequent life at ‘Trereife’ in an ever-changing world. A life of variety, undeniably, and one which encompassed a number of attempts at being a jockey whilst training to become a solicitor, a profession he settled into and practised for many years.
Attempting to look after Trereife is now the centre point of his life, including the opening of the house and gardens. A rather different life to that of his forebears.
