83 TRINITY SQUARE, MARGATE, KENT CT9 1HS
Dear
I am doing research on a mine in St Winnow,
Lostwithiel. The mine was formally known as Wheal Fortescue, at the summit of Beaconhill.
in 1860 changed ownership and was renamed SilverVein Mine.
I have compiled quite a lot of history and have a plan and map of the
sett.What i am lacking is a picture of the enginehouse which was intact until quite
recently when the owner dynamited it leaving nothing but rubble behind. I would
be most grateful if you could ask anyone in your association who might have
taken photos of this interesting mine. I would of course be only to glad to pay
for any which may arrise.Thank you for you time and look forward to your
reply.
