Quay Road, Devoran is the original route of the Chacewater and Redruth Railway do the Devoran wharves. It was later by-passed by a line, behind these houses, which ran to Point Quay. I was taken by the way that this lawn is protected by granite sleeper blocks from the old railway. They are distinctive by virtue of their twin peg holes for spiking down the chairs which held the rails. See also Image
