There are very few photographs of the mine and none I can discover while she was active. This photo shows the huge tip in front of the Counthouse this was removed when and for what I have no idea. The amount of vegetation is interesting nature soon recovers if give the chance.

A very dry summer in 1859 caused the halt to stamping due to lack of water.

This year during the drought there was a reasonable flow of water down the river.

It could be the gunpowder works higher up was responsible for the lack of flow.

I built a small pond this year and put some colourful minerals pieces around it including a piece of very deep purple Amethyst I collected a few years ago. To my disbelief it has been stolen this week!

Any quantity of Cornish minerals wanted. northherodsfootmine@yahoo.co.uk
