Tips from the Community

Manny & Daisy
January 23, 2025, Wheal Anna Maria Calciner Complex

Wheal Anna Maria – a copper and arsenic mine – covered 3.2 hectares and had over 6,850 cubic metres of arsenic flues! It was named after the Duchess of Bedford! Her main workings were on the ‘Main Lode‘ (the largest sulphide deposit in southwest England). When its rich copper waned, Devon Great Consols became the largest arsenic mine in the world because the margins of the copper-rich lode were dominated by arsenopyrite. In 1860 the copper lode at Anna Maria was up to 45 feet wide and yielding up to 80 tons per fathom, but by around 1880 the copper boom was over. Thankfully, arsenic production sustained the mine into the 1900s, until the company folded. Arsenic ore, unlike copper ore, was refined on site using the ‘calcination’ process – and at Wheal Anna Maria they yielded over 72,000 tons of refined arsenic! – Whoop!

Area of coniferous woodland, near Tavistock, situated on the banks of the river Tamar. The woods are home to plenty of hiking and bike trails, and offer plenty of scope for exploration.

Launceston Castle was built shortly after the Norman Conquest in 1068. It's towering position high above the town means it can be seen from miles around. Launceston was once the capital of Cornwall but when this was changed to Bodmin, the castle fell into disrepair. It was used as a jail and then to host assizes, courts held in county towns presided over by a visiting judge.
