Plan to build a second town centre
A SECOND town centre could be created on the eastern side of St Austell, the Cornish Guardian can reveal.

On Tuesday night Eco-Bos, the company spearheading the eco-town proposals, admitted it was putting the scheme on hold.

Cornwall Council said it was concerned at the news and would be meeting the company soon.
