EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from the 1920s showcases the Amalbrea tin stream works in Towednack, Cornwall. The surface view of this historic site offers a glimpse into the industrious activities that once took place here. Operated by John James Curnow, these works were an integral part of Cornwall's rich mining heritage. The image captures several key elements of the tin stream works. A cornish, or water-powered device, can be seen prominently in the foreground. This ingenious contraption was used to separate valuable minerals from surrounding debris through a process known as "laundering". Nearby stands a budle, another essential tool employed for washing and concentrating ore. Further back in the frame are stamps mills, which pulverized rocks to extract precious metals like tin. These mills played a vital role in processing raw materials before they could be smelted and refined. A raceway channels water towards various parts of the mine complex, providing power for machinery and facilitating efficient operations throughout the site. This remarkable photograph is credited to A. K. Hamilton Jenkin, who skillfully captured not only the physical structures but also conveyed a sense of bustling activity that once characterized this location. As we admire this snapshot from history at Royal Cornwall Museum, it serves as a poignant reminder of Cornwall's significant contribution to mining technology and its enduring legacy within our cultural heritage.
