East Kit Hill Mine

 

Back to list of mines

 

 

Little is known about this mine; it worked in the early 1850s but closed in 1856 and reopened in 1870.  The ruinous engine house and stack are thought to have worked Cornish stamps for crushing ore.  The mine produced some tin, arsenic and tungsten.
