Where It Is
Benson gardens stands (as the name suggests) in the former grounds of Benson House, an impressive 18th century country house in the sought after Moresk area of Truro which is close to the city centre. Built in 1974 the development is one of only a handful of city centre, purpose built apartment complexes and offers city centre living in a well planned building. The location is truly a short and almost level walk from the middle of Truro. You can also walk from here to Daubuz moor which is a delightful nature reserve close by. The facilities of Truro are really on the doorstep here making this property a great place from which to enjoy the array of shops, restaurants, cafes and bars along with the newly rebuilt Hall For Cornwall, the county's main theatre which attracts nationally acclaimed shows and acts.

Each reading is based on the highest predicted speed of any major broadband network for services that deliver the download speeds. The following are the different readings that we may display:

    Basic: Up to 30 Mbit/s
    Super-fast: Between 30 Mbit/s and 300 Mbit/s
    Ultra-fast: Over 300 Mbit/s

    The data is updated three times a year. The checker results are predictions and should not be regarded as guaranteed. For more information, see: https://checker.ofcom.org.uk/en-gb/about-checker#Answer_0_2

    Mobile phone signal availability and predicted strength: obtained from Ofcom on February 15, 2022

    Mobile signal predictions are provided by the four UK mobile network operators: EE, O2, Three and Vodafone. Predictions can vary significantly from the coverage you may actually experience as a result of local factors (especially terrain). Ofcom has tested the actual coverage provided in various locations around the UK to help ensure that these predictions are reasonable. The values shown against a property can be broken down as follows:

    Clear: No bars, no signal predicted
    Red: One bar, reliable signal unlikely
    Amber: Two bars, may experience problems with connectivity
    Green: Three bars, likely to have good coverage and receive a data rate to support basic web services
