Established around 1846, incorporating Penhale Mine and Wheal Torr. Wheal Torr, now entirely concealed, seemed to operate in the eastern section of the mining area, while Penhale Mine worked the western part. In 1860, the same mining area underwent reworking under the name Penhale and Trecarne United Mine.
