Botallack Mine

Botallack Mine sits on the cliff top above the Atlantic Ocean in Cornwall. The ruins of this tin mine are a reminder of the hard and dangerous work that fathers and sons had to endure in their endeavour to extract ore from the undergroudn tunnels that stretched out under the sea bed. Many died and were injured in the terrible accidents that occurred during the nineteen hundreds.
