This mining area was situated to the east of West Par Consols and primarily north of the St Austell-St Blazey road. It consisted of five east-west-trending lodes, spanning a north-south distance of 175 fathoms, intersected by a northwest-trending caunter lode. However, no significant mining activity occurred here, apart from some exploratory trials on the southernmost lode, which was believed to be a continuation of the tin lode of West Par Consols. There are no documented records of production from this site.
