Camborne

Camborne is the centre of the mining division and has a population of nearly 15,000. It claims to be one of the healthiest towns in Cornwall and within easy walking distance is the most magnificent cliff scenery to be found the wide world over. Within the last few years great and numerous improvements have been made, and are still being made, in the dwellings of the people generally the demand for houses have been so great that the Dolcoath Directors have found it necessary to erect something like 60 houses for their employees, and should the price of tin keep up, it is hoped there will be plenty of work and good wages for the miner and artizan for many years to come.
