Location

Helston is famed for its historic Flora Day celebrations on 8th May when the town is bedecked with greenery, bluebells and gorse and throughout the day dancers weave in and out of shops, houses and gardens following the Helston Town Band playing the famous Floral Dance and ushering in the Summer, this property is part of the historic ‘old town’ and is situated on the route of the morning and evening dance and the Hal an Tow, perfectly placed to enjoy the festivities and just a few moments walk from the town centre. Originally constructed for workers of the Penrose Estate Penrose road comprises primarily of ‘workers cottages’ with two larger properties built for the foremen, one of which is this property. During the landscaping of the gardens the seller discovered a canon ball buried in the garden which is now on display at Helston Museum.
