Brunton's Arsenic Calcining Kiln
This is a nice, mostly complete calcining kiln. A waterwheel provided power for the gearing sited in the front opening. A table rotated five times an hour heating the cassiterite ore to 600 degrees celsius. The cassiterite (tin ore) was collected off the table, the arsenic was condensed in a flue and scraped off.

Gilbert's Combe milestone - detail
Portreath 3 miles to the north, and Redruth (Town Centre) 1 mile south. The stone stands about 4' high, which makes it quite large by the standards of these things.

Perched (rather precariously, frankly) on the roadside wall beside the B3300; if knocked off, it'll fall straight into the adjacent stream.

Brunton's Arsenic Calcining Kiln
Worm gearing that rotated the calcining table five times an hour. I think it was powered by a long gone water wheel.
