| Description |
English: A Cornish Mining Walk (Unity Wood)
589616 : Previous -- (27 of 34) -- Next : 589938 This photograph shows the footpath (part of the Wheal Busy Loop) close to the centre of Unity Wood. The route of the walk follows the track ahead. I once walked this route at dusk with a heavy mist swirling about the trees - very Tolkienesque! Unity Wood is an important ancient woodland and mining landscape dating back to medieval tin working. --- Although there is an easy, safe footpath through Unity Wood, you should not leave the path except where marked. The wood is private and there are a great many old mine workings whose safety should not be relied upon. Wheal is Cornish for Mine and this circular walk visits a number of mine ruins in the area between Chacewater and Scorrier. Building, chimneys and pits belonging to Wheal Busy, Unity Wood and Killifreth Engine House amongst others are visited. Some of the walking is on minor roads and there is one major road to cross, so please take care. --- To go to the photograph for the start of the walk, click here 588484. |
