Site of the 'real' Wheal Leisure
Winston Graham's Poldark saga details many real life locations around Perranporth, where he wrote these novels. Wheal Leisure, the copper mine referred to in these works, now has no surface remains, but its flooded levels still lie beneath Perranporth's main street. The mine's name is commemorated by a small road to the north east of the town.
