Dolcoath Mine, New East Shaft
This is the whim (winding) engine house and boiler house. This would have housed a beam (steam) winding engine with the drums outdoors. In about 1913 it was converted to a transformer house the bob opening was filled in with a new arched window. Ceramic pipes penetrate the end walls and would have carried conductors (probably bare).

The former eastern whim house for this mine, later converted to an electricity substation and now conserved. The boiler house is a rare survival.
Note the window alterations around the roof area.

Spoils of industry at Tucking Mill
This area between Camborne and Redruth contains much evidence of the former tin and copper mining industries. Even the name of the river in this shallow valley, Red River, reminds us of the colour of the soil from the copper. The valley is greener now, as nature returns.
The railway crosses on a shallow viaduct here and this photo was taken from the 1158 Penzance to London Paddington train, having left Camborne at 1224.

Road Junction
South Crofty mine dominates the landscape around here. The bins etc. have permission to be demolished, but it's probable the shaft will survive owing to its Landmark status.
