Buildings We Saved

Since 2001

In 2001, working closely with North Cornwall District Council, we completed the renovation of a town house at 20 Lower Bore Street, Bodmin. From 2008-2013, the Trust partnered with The Prince’s Regeneration Trust to restore Old Duchy Palace in Lostwithiel. We also assisted Cornwall Council with an Options Appraisal for the conversion of Loggan’s Mill, Hayle.
