CORNWALL RAILWAY SOCIETY

  Indoor Meetings Programme: 2019/20

 Meetings are held at the Memorial Hall at Redruth Methodist Church. Redruth Methodist Church is easy to find - it is alongside the railway adjacent to the tunnel.  Exiting the station from the up side turn right.  There is free car parking in the evenings at Flower Pot car park just 100 yards away. Check out the location on Google Earth and use street view. There are quite good bus and train services from the station.

We meet in the Memorial Hall which is on the first floor of this imposing building. The entrance for the hall is around the back. Walk up the narrow pavement to the left of the building.

You will have walked up the narrow pavement alongside the road, entrance to the hall is through the white door seen in this view. Beyond the door a sloping passageway leads up to the Memorial Hall.
