Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Hooten Wheals. Hooten Wheals is a disused tin mine. It is situated up the valley of the O brook which was obviously a rich tin area since there is another tin mine nearby - Hensroost - as well as remains of earlier extensive tin streaming. Hooten Wheals was active at the end of the 19th century and for a few years after. A severe storm in 1920 finally put paid to it. It was a productive mine in its time. There are lots of remains still around and little imagination is needed to appreciate what a busy place this would have been 100 years ago. |
