The Parish Vestry is a Grade II listed building which was built in 1820. The first floor served as a school and also hosted parish meetings. The ground floor area had a ‘clink’, a lock-up for temporary incarceration of wrongdoers. The building was probably erected as a result of Sturges Bourne’s Act of 1819, which gave parishes the power to appoint select vestries “for more effectual execution of the laws for the relief of the poor”. Rates were also paid at the Vestry room at one time. The building has until recently been vacant and in a poor state of repair. In 2010 a grant from the Camborne, Roskear and Tuckingmill Townscape Heritage Initiative assisted with a complete renovation of this building using traditional materials and techniques. The building is currently being used by community groups as offices.
