You should get a copy of "Exploring Cornish Mines" vol 4 by Kenneth
Brown and Bob Acton - a whole section of guided walks on the Phoenix
mines including historical maps.
There was a South Wheal Frances as part of the Basset mines group at
Carnkie - covered in volume 1 of the series.
I'm sure Mike Moore Books can get copies of these books for you.
