Caradon Hill Mining Landscape

AIRVŪZ STAFF NOTE :

You've read the "Poldark" novels or seen the TV show adaptation, you'll appreciate that Cornwall in England was once very much mining country.  For centuries, tin and later copper extracted from Cornwall mines helped propel the economy of England.  Mining in Cornwall is now completely relegated to history; the last mines closed near the turn of the 21st century.  In this video by contributor Inspirecornwall, you'll get an epic bird's eye view of Caradon Hill, once the site of innumerable mines.
