Truro and the places nearby.
Truro is Cornwall's only city and its administrative and shopping centre, home to the county council, the main hospital at Treliske and a cathedral that anchors the centre. People drive in from right across the county for appointments, offices and shops. A Truro business can realistically pitch to a much wider slice of Cornwall than its size suggests, but the website needs to say plainly how far you travel, because the county is long and the lanes are slow.
The nearest towns in the same council area are Penryn (7 miles), Falmouth (8 miles), Redruth (8 miles) and Newquay (11 miles). If you cover some of these and not others, the site should name the ones you do.
Within Truro itself, we build for businesses in Kenwyn, Highertown, Malpas, Threemilestone, Treliske and Shortlanesend.
From our base in Exeter, Truro is about 74 miles to the south-west. Its postcodes start TR.
