Lawrence House
Lawrence House stands on Castle Street in Launceston, a fine Georgian townhouse built in the 1750s for a wealthy local family. Today it serves as the town's museum, with rooms tracing Launceston's story through costume, civic regalia, local crafts and changing displays. Run largely by volunteers and free to enter, it offers a friendly, unhurried look at Cornish town life through the centuries.
