Sorry about the plug, but I think that this may be of intrest to anyone
studying the Liskeard,Caradon and Menheniot mines.
I have just finished the 2nd edition of the CD-ROM version of Brenton
Symon's Liskeard area map. Published in 1863 it covers the Caradon,
Ludcott and Menheniot mines. The disk also includes a full transcript of
Webb & Geach's book " The history and progress of Mining in the Cardon and
Liskeard district" along with several other assorted bits of information
and some photographs.
It is available from Liskeard bookshops or online/mail order from "Just
Cornish". I can also send out copies direct for £6 (UK), (abroad I'll have
to price the postage), drop me an email for more info. If anyone holds a
1st edition and would like an upgrade, also drop us an email.
