Carn Galva tin mine, pumping engine house.

by Andy Rodker
Located between the hill of Carn Galva seen here and the coast at Bosigran, in Zennor Parish, this was only in operation for a couple of decades in the mid to late 19th century. The ruin to the right is the pumping engine house for the mine.

Andy Rodker replied to Gudrun:

Indeed they are and I should have added 'pumping engine house' to the notes or title, so I will!
