The Rough....

The three Crowns at Botallack when I didn't fancy my chances walking over the ridge ;))

 

Copper and tin were the main metals mined in Botallack. The tin was mainly found in granite underground and the copper in killas rock under the seabed. The underground workings at the Crowns were a mile long, with one-third of the shafts and tunnels being under the seabed.

 

Tuesday I had to write to the helpline on Flickr because I simply could neither fave nor comment on many shots. I had a reply from customer support which I have copied below just in case anyone else has had problems..

 

“Apologies for the trouble, the error you're seeing isn't a block but some temporary issues we were having with the site at the same time. We've rolled out a fix a bit ago to help with the errors, and we're keeping any new details we have on our status page here:”

 

I was repeatedly getting bad gateway 505 not even bad panda so thought I was blocked for some unknown reason but it has held me up which I could do without…..
