Mines
Mining has a long pedigree in this extensive mining district, which
stretches along the south coast from Marazion to Porthleven, its northern edges following a line which runs from just south of Hayle eastwards through the
Gwinear mining district to Praze-an-Beeble. Several of the mines within this area, notably Great Work, Wheal Vor, Great Wheal Fortune, Godolphin Mine, Binner
Downs, Halamannning, Wheal Alfred, Crenver and Abraham and the Marazion mines, were substantial producers, but many other smaller mines are documented within
this area. |
