Situated right next to the road, Carn Calver Mine is an ideal accessible place to get up close to Cornwall's industrial past.
The mine was operational for only 20 years with only 150 tons of tin produced. The two ruins closest to the road are engine houses. The wall of the chimneyed building was destroyed to fill in the mine when it closed. The Count House, off to the north from the car park, is now used by Bosigran Climbing Club to store their equipment.
