The Clock Tower & Old Market, Camborne

The town clock was built by John Francis Basset in 1866. The building was erected as a market to replace an older one. Since then it has been a Magistrates Court, a skating rink and a cinema called the Scala. The front area is currently unused (2013), but the rear portion is a Wetherspoons pub.
