This houses a Tourist Information Centre, a theatre, and the "Courtroom Experience". "Built between 1837 and 1838 the Shire Hall is an architectural gem with its extraordinary interior cantilevered staircase and the imposing solid granite front facade. Used as the County Court until 1988 the building has now been carefully restored to its original glory by Bodmin Town Council using funds from the Lottery and from the European Fund", says its website www.bodminmoor.co.uk
