About Portreath Parish Council
The Parish of Portreath spans a stretch of the North coast between Porthtowan and Gwithian, bordering with the village of Illogan to its South. Its closest towns are Redruth and Camborne.
In the past, Portreath prospered from its busy harbour, exporting tin ore and importing coal for the mining industry. Fishing also played a major role in village life, and continues into the present
Today, Portreath is a very popular tourist destination and the village welcomes our visitors every year. Evidence of our industrial and war time past can still be found all over the Parish. Surfers flock here, as well as families looking for a friendly relaxed holiday.
Background and Context
The contractor is invited to tender for the demolition of the redundant toilet block and construction of a new parish office and community meeting room. The intention of the project is to create a suitable working space for the parish clerk and also to provide a meeting place for community groups.
The project is part of a CLUP grant funded application process and therefore procurement will be subject to grant approval of the project. This will not be known before November 2023. We will assess tenders received on a Most Economically Advantageous Tender.
