Located near Goshen farm, just west of Wheal Mithian and across the parish boundary, is a small lead mine. On Brenton’s map of the Chiverton Mining District from 1869, this mine is labeled as George the Fourth Mine. Initially, Dines misattributed the workings to Wheal Liberty, which was situated approximately half a mile further west. This error was rectified in the 1994 reprint.
