During the 18th century the mine produced enormous amounts of copper ore and was very wealthy, but from the later 19th century onwards was not profitable. Today the site of the mine is part of the Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape World Heritage Site. Local dining options include Smokey Joe’s, Chiverton Arms, St Day Fryer, and St Day Fryer.
