Description
Wheal Coates is a fascinating mining monument with a rich history dating back to 1692. This former tin and copper mine, which operated until 1914, impresses with its distinctive engine house buildings against the backdrop of Cornwall's spectacular cliffs.
Walking through the grounds, visitors can admire the impressive structures, including the 1872 Towanroath Pumping Engine House, and enjoy breathtaking views of the Atlantic. The site is a UNESCO World Heritage Site as part of the Cornwall and West Devonian mining landscape.
