Probus
Probus is a historic market village that can trace its origins back to before the Norman conquests when it even had its own monastery. Most of the village's current period charms date back to the 1500's including the square and the church. The Church itself holds the record of being Cornwall's tallest church tower, measuring 129ft tall to its highest point. It is situated just off the main A390 approximately seven miles east of the city of Truro and nine miles from St Austell with regular bus services to both of these. The village itself has all the facilities required for everyday needs including a Post Office, garage, farm shop, grocery shop, public house, Indian restaurant, Chinese takeaway, hairdressers, school and a fish and chip shop. There is also an extremely good doctors' surgery. Probus is within the catchment area of the Ofsted rated Outstanding Roseland Academy secondary school at Tregony. The village is also easily accessible to the picturesque Roseland Peninsula and many of the beaches along the South Cornish coast.
