Green lanes at Carnkeif

The hillside around Carnkeif is covered with a network of green lanes, many of them marked on the O/S 1:25,000 map as "Byway open to all traffic". This is quite common in former mining areas in Cornwall. In areas such as this one where mining activity ceased long ago there is little other evidence of mining visible to the passer-by.
