East Holmbush Mine

 

Little is known about this now rather overgrown mine.  Formerly it produced copper, lead and silver and during the early 1800s it had a 36-inch pumping engine.  After 1845 it was incorporated into the first operation called Callington United, which reopened under the same name in 1876.
