Camborne-Redruth was an urban district in Cornwall, England, from 1934 to 1974. It was formed as a merger of Camborne and Redruth urban districts along with parts of Redruth Rural District and Helston Rural District (both of which were being abolished).[1] The towns are about four miles apart and form a loose conurbation.[2] It contained the civil parish of Camborne-Redruth.[1] In 1961 it had a population of 36,110.[3]
The urban district persisted until it was merged into the Kerrier district of Cornwall under the Local Government Act 1972.
