Welcome

The village of Ponsanooth lies just of the main A393 between Redruth and Penryn. It is well known for the walk at Kennall Woods and its strong community feel. We are still lucky to have a post office and shop, a pub, a thriving village school and a chapel and church. The village is known for its Christmas lights and its Summer Fair Day.

We hope that you spend some time looking round the site, and if any of it brings back memories, then please let us known by using the contact us button and we will publish them in the 'Down Memory Lane' section. Similarly if you are a local business or organisation and would like a prescence in cyber space then feel free to contact us as well. All listings on the site are free, although you may wish to contribute to a local 'good cause' via Gary at 'The Stag Hunt'

New Website - again!

The website was first started as part of the millenium celebrations when I scanned in a lot of photos that were used for the display in the village school. I wanted to provide a way for people to see the photos long after the exhibition had gone. Hence the website!

Over the last nine years the time I have had availalble for the website has ebbed and flowed, but a recent email from a person in South America made me realise that it can reach places, and have positive benefits far beyond my first thoughts for it. So here we are website version 5!

Please feel free to contribute. I am always willing to publish any photographs that refelect the village, stories or memories, as well as advertise village events, organisations or businesses. Just use the 'Contact Us' section on the menu
