Including Ting Tang and Wheal Moyle. This group resulted from the amalgamation of Ting Tang Mine, Wheal Moyle, and Carqueen Mine. Spanning Carharrack, Gwennap, and Lanner parishes, the sett forms a triangular area, with its boundaries marked by the B3298 to the east, Pennance Road to the west, and a road northeast of West Trevarth to the south. The Ting Tang section lies in the north, the Wheal Moyle section in the southeast, and the Carqueen section, without existing plans, is indiscernible. The main lodes, proceeding from north to south, include North Lode (Roach’s Lode), Middle Lode, South Lode, Old Lode, Flat Lode, and Tin Lode, with the latter two situated in the Wheal Moyle section.
