King Edward Mine - Buildings

Buildings

Elsewhere on the site, but not currently open to the public are:

• The mine office - the only 'Count House' in Cornwall still used for the purpose for which it was built in the 1860s.
• The timber framed and panelled Survey Office - a classic structure of which no other examples remain in Cornwall.
• The carpenters' shop, blacksmith's shop, vanning room and the original miners 'dry'.
• The cobbled 'spalling' floor, which probably dates from about 1865 when the mine was predominantly a copper producer, which is one of the better examples remaining in Cornwall.
