Porthleven Town Clock

The Bickford-Smith Institute and clock tower was built in 1882 at a cost of £2000. The building was gifted to Porthleven by William Bickford-Smith of Sithney as a scientific and literary institute including a lending and reference library. The building now houses the Porthleven Town Council and the office of the Town Clerk.
