I have now been informed that the shaft I showed at the start isn't contact shaft. It's actually 50m or so South and has been capped with concrete. There's so many in the area it's easy to confuse them.

Not always possible though good advice. In fact 3 people really should be the minimum. One to stay with victim and other to get help.

So claustrophobic! I’ve often tried to imagine what it must’ve been like to work down the mines day in, day out, making the mine owners so incredibly wealthy and risking your life to do so. I live in the mining area of St Day and am reminded of our mining heritage on a daily basis. Thank you for making and sharing this!

0:43 incase you didn’t know those obvious reasons, well he can’t show you because then people will find the location, and do it themselves, later on in the video, he mentions that this is dangerous, so people will have a high chance of getting hurt. This is the same reason why for every choice he could have made in the mine he decided not to do.

Quick question, is that beach to the right in the distance at the beginning of the video Perranporth? I've moved into the area about a year ago just before covid and would love to find more out about the mining history and heritage. Any places you recommend going such as this one and others?
@TonyFisherPuzzles3 жыл бұрын
Yes it is. You are so lucky to live there, I can only visit once a year. You should join the Cornish Explorers Facebook group. There's many local experts and a few who actually worked in the mines. They will give you loads of information though they are very secretive about actually going inside mines like the one in my video. They are scared of people just wandering in and getting hurt. This could result in more mines being sealed up (as most are). They go in with ropes and are very experienced. Some even help with cave rescues. The mine in my video is the most well known and assessable as far as I know. There's loads of small stuff along the coast but I don't know anywhere remotely this good. There are some workings visible at the south end of the Perranporth beach but I assume you have seen them. These are what got me interested during summer holidays as a kid.

Tony, you didn't go in on your own did you? I spent 3 hours in Cligga a few weeks back with a group of 8 people but we had local BCA members who know the mine escorting us.
@TonyFisherPuzzles5 жыл бұрын
I did and I know that is really ill advised. However it would be really hard for me to go with someone since I don't live in Cornwall and have very little flexibility on when I can visit. I spent two years researching the mine and joined Facebook groups where it is frequently discussed. I had maps and a strict check-in system with a friend back home. I also felt that going alone means that I am 100% focused instead of chatting to others and perhaps being influenced to go areas I was uncomfortable going.

Not really though I have always been fascinated with tunnels / caves and where they go. That probably came from TV programs about Egypt combined with family holidays to Cornwall where I saw actual caves for the first time.

Im gutted they've capped that shaft, my dad showed me that when i was a boy on holiday, in the 70s, it was a gaping hole in the ground with just a rickety old chain link fence around it the last time i went a few years ago it had a steel grill over it but the shaft was still visible, i noticed the steel grill is still there but they've now capped it completely, im not happy about this, another peice of our Industrial Heritage gone forever,, why dont these useless busybodies just leave things alone Great Video tho..

I actually made an error. The top of the shaft shown in the cave system is about 50m to the south. It's just a square of concrete since it's been capped. I used to go here in the 80s on family holidays and also had no idea you could get on the beach and into the system.
