Description
This property is a unique opportunity to own a coastal plot of land in Porthtowan, Cornwall, with stunning views across the valley and a short walk from the blue flag beach. The land, approximately 0.385 acres, is situated near the Wheal Ellen engine house and has open access for viewing. The property also includes an extensive underground mine, which has been partly mapped by geologists and potholers, with estimates suggesting over 5,000 feet of tunnels and passages. The mine has a rich history, having been a significant copper mine in the 19th century, and has potential for lithium deposits, which are currently a global search. The area is a popular destination for families and surfers, with a range of facilities, including shops, restaurants, and cafes. With excellent communication links throughout Cornwall, this property offers a unique chance to own a piece of history and potentially unlock the secrets of the mine.
