Wheal Mexico
Underground Mine
Experience going into a real mine. Walk through the tunnels that were made by men & boys two hundred years ago! It's cool in the mine!
Dating back to the 18th century Wheal Mexico was part of the tin and copper mining industry that dominated Cornwall for centuries, providing the bronze used in machinery during the Industrial Revolution: from factories producing cotton and woollen cloth in the north of England, buttons in Birmingham to ships on Clydeside!
