Plough Inn

The Plough Inn was situated on College Street. It was built in 1839 and closed in 2008, supposedly because of major structural defects. This pub was unusual in having an Indian landlord, Simon Majwardine, in the 1980s. It has now been converted to an Indian restaurant.

An alleged tunnel is said to lead from The Plough Inn to Camborne Church: 'My parents used to own the plough inn and one had to replace the floor boards…when they pulled up the floor boards they found a stair-well of about 6 steps, at the bottom of the steps was a tunnel which went straight to Camborne Church…it was said to be used by monks'
