That's an intriguing picture that piques my interest and makes me want to visit! I've never been to a tin mine and it would be fun to see how it all works! That's cool that there are people there to keep it up to snuff for touring.

HFF!

Thank you, Janet, should you find yourself over there I would highly recommend a visit. I hope your weekend and travels are going well.

Being lead by fences looks far nicer, than being locked out or in by them.
Beautiful picture.

tiabunna ^club has replied to Dimas Sequeira ^club

Thank you, Dimas. Actually, there are quite a few mines in this area and I understand that quite a few (including this one) had tunnels out under the ocean.

The tin mines are a familiar feature on the beautiful Cornish landscape George but I have never visited one. It must have been interesting. A lovely shot with lovely blue skies and view of the sea. HFF and have a good weekend

Thank you, Carol, it was indeed all we'd hoped, with the weather as a bonus. I'd recommend adding a visit to your 'future trips' list. :-) Hope your week is going well.

A rather belated HFF, George.
Superb views of Cornwall's heritage. Just look at the weather! I bet you din't expect that in the UK in February. ;-)

Herb Riddle ^club

A fine record of this place George. I don't believe I have been to this one? These tin mines can look pretty spectacular in the right moody lighting. Looks like you got good weather for your touring though - not the usual here for Feb me thinks.

Cheers, Herb
