They did a really great job with the renovation about 15 years ago. It was a bit tired inside when I was growing up but it’s really nice now.

Loved reading these…agree entirely about the Regal!

Just out of the centre there’s the wonderful 21st C Kresen Kernow, on the site of the former brewery, and also the ginormous (for Redruth) J I Case factory on the Cardrew Industrial estate (early 70s I think, now RR Transport and Storage)

In Redruth town centre there’s the 1930s Regal Cinema, also a slightly quirky late 60s/early 70s Tesco (now Iceland), which was built after they demolished the very grand Victorian Tabb’s Hotel.
