I think that some of the local people were in a tizz about it because they felt it mocked the demise of the tin mining in the area (Redruth was a booming town during the 'Industrial Revolution'). Like one retired tin miner quoted that he could live quite comfortably on the money for two years.

Looking up the info on it all, it was installed over 7 years ago, so I think the mumbles and grumbles have subsided a bit now.
