A short distance from the path

A short ride/walk upstream from Ponts Mill

Cornwalls industrial heritage at its finest! Fabulous peaceful valley with a lovely tranquil atmosphere. Be aware if leaving the road to explore the trails it does get extremely muddy when it's been raining!

An absolutely magical stretch of shared cycleway and footpath that follows the River Par on what was once an old tramway. You're surrounded by reminders of the Luxulyan Valley's historic past, with crumbling buildings, chimneys and Treffry's Viaduct which were all used in clay extraction here. Today, the route is blissfully peaceful, though the river does flow with quite some force alongside the path. Look out for dippers here.

Treffry's Viaduct was used as a tramway and for carrying water across the Luxulyan valley. This was built in the 19th century by Joseph Thomas Treffry, owner of the Fowey Consols Mine. This impressive engineering project stands at 90ft tall and 670ft in length. Water carried across the viaduct was used to power the nearby Carmears Wheel. The viaduct is built with local stone from nearby quarries, which were linked by tramways to the viaduct.

Breney Common is an important wetland, open water and dry heathland site designated as a SSSI and nature reserve. Historically it was a tin mining area which left the depressions and landforms which then became ponds and ditches. There are a wide variety of plants and animals here, the area supports several dragonfly and damselfly species.

There was once a china clay works here called Pontsmill. Back then the cycle path was a tramway. In peace and tranquility now, the path takes you right next to remnants of the Luxulyan Valley's industrial past.
