Geevor is Cornwall's Premier Mining Centre, situated midway between Lands End and St Ives on the wild Atlantic coast. The largest complete mining site in the country, it offers visitors an underground tour, and a fascinating museum where you can follow the whole story of the mining and processing of tin and gain insights into the lives of the miners in past centuries. Allow half a day to visit this unique attraction in a magnificent coastal setting.

Brit Quote:
Man is the only creature that consumes without producing. He does not give milk, he does not lay eggs, he is too weak to pull the plough, he cannot run fast enough to catch rabbits. Yet he is lord of all the animals - George Orwell
