Worth climb to the cairn for the downhill section on the main access road. Then drop into single track round the back lanes of Carharrack. Sweet! :)

South Wheal Francis is a historic tin and copper mine located in Cornwall, notable for its impressive engine house and rich mining heritage. It was a hub of industrial activity during the 19th century and is now a UNESCO World Heritage Site dedicated to Cornish mining landscapes.

South Wheal Frances was originally a copper mine in the 1820s, before becoming a tin mine from the 1850s. The mine was active until 1918. The structures are relatively well preserved, including the remains of the engine house which contained an unusual inverted vertical beam engine.

Wheal Basset produced over 128,000 tons of copper ore between 1832-1880 and was a particularly important mine of the Great Flat Lode. The well preserved Wheal Basset vanner house was built in 1908, where the mining ore was processed.

Wheal Uny can be seen for miles around up on the hill next to Redruth and close to Carn Brea. In use for much of the 19th century for copper ore and black tin it reportedly had a huge fortune within it but the mine was closed in 1893 when the price of tin dropped and it was not economical to keep the pumping houses running.

Running up here to the summit of Carn Marth will reward you with beautiful views across rural Cornwall. This area is filled with reminders of the county's industrial past and here is o different with Harvey's Quarry to the north and Hick's Quarry to the east, now a serene pool.

This is an incredible piece of Cornish industrial history. Once a copper and tin mine, the ruined buildings offer a fascinating glimpse into Cornwall's past. Now overtaken by ivy and moss, it is hard to imagine the dangerous and dirty work that would have been happening here. The mines here dug into the Great Flat Lode, now a waymarked cycling trail, named after the mineral rich body of rock south of Carn Brea.
