The royal visit to Botallack Mine
Botallack Mine is in the far west of Cornwall.
Botallack Mine and the Engine Houses of Owles and Crowns provided the dramatic coastal setting for mining scenes on the ÃÛÑ¿´«Ã½ series Poldark.
The area near St Just once played host to some very well known visitors who it's thought started off an interest in mining tourism.
