Welcome to Wheal Jane
Image: © Tony Atkin Taken: 14 Jun 2008
This welcome sign wrapped around half of an old winding wheel is at the eastern entrance to the disused Wheal Jane site which now houses several companies in the mining, minerals, environment and engineering industries. Behind the sign, beyond the mown field is the level expanse of the tailings lagoons.
