My dear Peter,

It is an excellent picture of the ruins of this unusual mine!
The iformation I have says that the mines engine house it housed a inverted compound beam engine, one of only three or four in the world.
You have made a wonderful picture with these old stone walls of the South Wheal Mine!
It really looks great againts to the blue sky in a nice suny September day!
HWW!

Love Füsun

My dear Füsun
Thank you for visiting!
Glad you like it.
As you know, the Cornish mines encouraged the development of steam engines, long before the days of railway.. So an important industrial relic too. Sadly the engine is long gone!
Best Wishes, and keep safe,
Love Peter

Hi Josiane,
Thank you so much for your very kind visit.

While they are protected, they were robbed so much in days gone by that there is nothing left to restore! Maybe build a new one....
