EDITORS COMMENTS
This print from 1895 transports us back in time to the bustling East Pool Mine in Illogan, Cornwall. The image captures a general surface view of this historic mining site, showcasing the intricate operations that took place during the Victorian era. Photographer John Charles Burrow skillfully frames the scene, allowing us to witness the daily activities of miners and their trusty horses. In this snapshot of history, we see a hive of activity as miners go about their tasks with determination and expertise. Horses pull carts laden with precious minerals while workers navigate through a maze of tracks and equipment. The towering engine house stands proudly in the background, serving as a symbol of industry and progress. One intriguing feature depicted here is the telepherage line carrying hoppers across the mine's landscape. This innovative transportation system revolutionized how materials were moved within mines during this period. It is fascinating to imagine these hoppers gliding effortlessly above ground, streamlining operations at East Pool Mine. The photograph exudes an air of resilience and hard work synonymous with Cornish mining heritage. It serves as a testament to both human ingenuity and nature's abundance hidden beneath our feet. Preserved by Royal Cornwall Museum, this print offers us a glimpse into an important chapter in Cornwall's industrial past – one that shaped communities and left an indelible mark on its cultural identity.
