LOCAL ADVICE/INFORMATION
Portreath Welcome Pack
First Edition 1st July 2005
Members of the Church and Community Incline Project have produced this publication. Originally we had intended to aim this booklet at newcomers to the village but as the collation continued we realized it would be of use to all residents whether they had lived in the area all their life or recently moved here. Please pass on this copy to any new neighbours or if you find it so useful you can not be parted from it, there are copies available in St Mary’s Church.
