An amateur who batted in the lower order, Trestrail was picked for the Somerset match against Lancashire at Taunton. After Lancashire had made 401 on the first day, he made 4 and then 3 as Somerset were beaten by an innings.[3] He was one of three Somerset debutants in the match; for one of the others, Ernest Shorrocks, this was also the only first-class match. The third, John Harcombe played six further matches for Somerset up to 1919.
Following the war, Trestrail joined a law firm in Huddersfield, lived in Kirkburton, and was the moving spirit behind the building of the Woodsome Hall Golf Club.[5]
