Description
One of the highlights of summer in Cornwall, and there are many, is seeing the heather and gorse on the clifftops with a stunning turquoise see beyond.
High on the rugged cliffs above Chapel Porth beach near St Agnes stand the ruins of one of Cornwall's most scenic and iconic mines, Wheal Coates tin mine. The area around Wheal Coates was worked since the medieval period, but most of the present ruins date from 1870.
On the clifftop above the Towanroath engine house near St Agnes in Cornwall stand the remains of the Whim Engine House and beside it the ruins of the stamping engine built earlier.
