Camborne, Cornwall
Town of
Camborne, Cornwall
The Town of Camborne is one of Cornwall's largest Towns with a population of
approximately 22,500 people. The location of Camborne is to the West of the
central mining division abutting with Pool and Redruth to form part of the
largest urban area in Cornwall.
The Town has suffered from the decline in the Tin mining industry which had
been the lifeblood of the Town since the early 19th century. Many of its
industries served the hard rock mining companies not only in Cornwall but in the
rest of the World. Camborne is world famous for its links with the Camborne
School of Mines and the former Holman Rock Drill and Compressor Company, and
also the Bickford Smith Safety Fuse Company.
Camborne has adapted and evolved and seen many changes since the closure of
the mines. The Town is now a vibrant place in which to live, work and visit.
