POOL is a large village, 2 miles south, on the road from Redruth to Camborne, about equi-distant from each, and half a mile north of Carn Brea railway station. The chapel of ease at Trevenson Moor, erected in 1806—9, by Lord de Dunstanville, and endowed by him with land at Treloweth of the original value of £42 yearly, is a building of stone, with granite quoins, in the Perpendicular style, and consists of chancel and nave, south porch and a western embattled tower, with pinnacles, containing a clock and one bell, presented in 1883 by the late G. L. Basset esq. : there is an attached burial ground, consecrated in July, 1880: the chapel affords 320 sittings. There are also Wesleyan and Free Methodist chapels. The Basset Literary Institute, built in 1878 by subscription, is well supplied with books, daily and weekly papers and magazines. Here is also a County Police Station, with residences for two constables and two cells for prisoners; and in the village is an iron foundry, and the East Pool and Agar United Mines, employing about 600 persons. Conveyances from Camborne to Redruth pass through the village at regular intervals during the day. Trevenson is the residence of William Teague esq.
