The town hall is, of course, the building with the clock. It is unusual for a village to have a town hall but Grampound has been around a long time and used to be an important market town and a centre for leather tanning. The church is dedicated to St Nun and was first built in 1370 although the small friendly-looking church you see here dates mainly from a rebuilding of the church in 1869.
