This blog is the second of two parts, using journals from two ‘outsider’ visits to Wheal Friendship to develop a portrait of this globally important mine, using their observations to glimpse the mine landscape and the people who worked it. In this second part we see what French mining journalist Louis Simonin makes of the mine, aided by drawings made by his companion artists.

This blog, in two parts, uses the journals of two ‘outsiders’ visits to Wheal Friendship to develop a portrait of this globally important mine, using their observations to glimpse the mine landscape and the people who worked it. In this first part we will examine what local woman Rachel Evans has to say about Wheal Friendship and in Part 2 we will see what French mining journalist Louis Simonin makes of the mine.
