More Cornish tin mines. HANWE, everyone!

More Cornish tin mines. HANWE, everyone!
Situated on a minor side road between St Day and Chacewater, I only re-discovered them when sent on a detour due to a road closure. I don't know their names. Perhaps worth viewing on large for detail of the stonework.
Sight and Sound: I heard this aged 9 at the same time as Penny Lane and fell in love with them both and it was the first time I listened to popular music - I was having a classical musical training. Have ever since loved the 'best' of both! www.youtube.com/watch?v=GDgqIyprGLM

I had a distant cousin / uncle who played in The Vipers, a skiffle band, quite well known in their day! I can't remember his name or what he played so I'm not much use here, sorry Dave!!

Wow the stonework is exceptional isn't it? Nowadays they use bricks all the same size to build things like this, very boring,

Well I saw most of these central Cornwall ones back in the 80s when I wanted to see as many as I could, which is why I say 're-discovered'. But I've lost my old notes and maps and so can't name most whereas I once could!
Thank you Herb!
PS. I forgot to say, I had some transparencies from those mine sessions with my old Pentax ME SLR but lawd knows where they are now. I'd love to be able to show them here. They were no great shakes - I didn't really know what I was doing then - still don't! - but with some crafty editing one or two might have been passable. Oh well!

A terrific shot Andy with these tin mines standing like silent sentinels in a tribute to past times
Beautiful.

Love the music and it is kind of fitting - "We'll touch the sky.." These tin mines seem to be reaching for the sky too.
