    Hiking

    The Beam Engine House of Wheal Edwards drove 32 Cornish stamps, a mill that compresses lumps of iron ore into a more sand like material. This allows it to be processed.

    It was built around 1870 and went into disrepair after Wheal Edwards was closed in 1893 following a disaster at nearby Wheal Owles. 19 men and boys were killed by a flood that engulfed the mine.
