Levant Mine, Trewellard
The photos on this page where taken in and around the Levant Mine area of Cornwall.
There are a number of buildings in the photo, the most complete is the engine house which houses a working beam engine which is in steam a few times a week, usually Wednesdays and Fridays, however in summer it is usually more frequent than this. For steaming times the best place to look is the National Trust Levant Mine webpage.
The other buidlings are the count house and arsenic works. There are also a few chimmenys dotted around the site which have either been rebuilt or repaired.
In some of the images you can see Victory shaft at Geevor mine, which is closeby and has better facilities than Levant, such as toilets (although I am led to believe Levant now has them) and a cafe. Geevor is a day out in itself if you re interested in mines.
In one or two photos you may also be able to see Pendeen lighthouse.
