Engine house at Ivey's Shaft Pulldown
An unusually large engine house. In 1859 the building was fitted with an 1846 Harvey 85" engine, moved from Wheal Vor Trelawney's Shaft, and it is said that the engine house was also moved stone by stone. It has been suggested that this event was the origin of the name 'Pulldown'. Grade II Listed http://www.britishlistedbuildings.co.uk/en-65729-engine-house-at-sw628298-ivey-s-shaft-whe

Engine House- Great Wheal Vor (Wheal Metal)
This is the best view from the public road and not involving trespass. It is nice to see consolidation in progress. This finely proportioned engine house is listed Grade II and housed a 85" Cornish beam pumping engine on Ivey's Shaft of the Wheal Metal section of this rich and venerable tin mine. The engine was built in 1855, transferred here in 1864 and removed to the Newcastle & Gateshead Water Company's site at Wylam in c1880. It survived into the 1940s.
