East Pool mine East Pool mine (later known as East Pool and Agar mine), was a metalliferous mine in the Camborne and Redruth mining area, just east of the village of Pool in Cornwall. Worked from the early 18th century until 1945, first for copper and later tin, it was very profitable for much of its life.

Carn Brea Castle Carn Brea Castle is a 14th-century grade II listed granite stone building. It was extensively remodelled in the 18th century as a hunting lodge in the style of a castle for the Basset family. The building is in private use as a restaurant.

Carn Marth Carn Marth (Cornish: Karn Margh) is the name of a hill in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom, near Redruth. It is 235 m (771 ft) high and is well known for the granite quarried from it in the past.

Poldice mine Poldice mine is a former metalliferous mine located in southwest Cornwall. It is situated near the hamlet of Todpool, between the villages of Twelveheads and St Day, three miles east of Redruth.

Wheal Gorland Wheal Gorland was one of the most important Cornish mines of the late 18th and early 19th centuries. It is the type locality for the minerals chenevixite, clinoclase, cornwallite, kernowite and liroconite.

Wheal Peevor Wheal Peevor was a metalliferous mine located on North Downs about 1.5 miles north-east of Redruth, Cornwall. The first mining sett was granted here in around 1701 on land owned by the St Aubyn family. The mine covered only 12 acres (4.8 ha) but had rich tin lodes.

Scorrier Scorrier is in the Gwennap Mining District of the Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape World Heritage Site. The name “Scorrier” is first attested as Scoria in 1330. The Plymouth to Penzance railway line passes through the village and between 1852 and 1964 it had its own station.

Killifreth Mine Killifreth Mine was a mine near Chacewater in Cornwall, producing copper, tin and arsenic. The engine house over Hawke’s Shaft is a Grade II listed building; it has the tallest surviving chimney in Cornwall.

Wheal Busy Wheal Busy was a metalliferous mine halfway between Redruth and Truro in the Gwennap mining area of Cornwall. During the 18th century the mine produced enormous amounts of copper ore and was very wealthy, but from the later 19th century onwards was not profitable. Today the site of the mine is part of the Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape World Heritage Site.
