The Millhouse Gallery

In 1989, McClure took over the running of the Millhouse restaurant in Penzance and converted it into a mini arts centre as a gallery venue for chess and the arts.
As the first and only vegan restaurant in Penzance at the time, it became a magnet for local and international celebrities including Jonathan Guinness, 3rd Baron Moyne and Susan Taylor who were regular visitors.
