Helston coinage hall
The Helston Coinage Hall was a Tudor coinage hall created for the purposes of tin coinage out of a 13th century chapel of ease. Its position lay at the southern end of Coinage Hall Street, opposite the Helston Castle. It was demolished by public subscription following the 1796 general election.
