Part of Perran Consols, 1927 rework. This mine constituted the central area of the Perran Consols mining location. Between 1864 and 1866, it yielded 120 tons of black tin. The grid reference points to the rough center of the mine’s operations, which are now situated within a holiday park and mostly covered by developments.
