With a storm front coming through along with high tide I made my way to Botallack Mines, hoping for the perfect wave... 30 minutes of standing in furious winds and rain! It was actually easier walking UP the hill back to the car with the wind behind me than making my way down earlier fighting against the wind.

Ja is denn heut scho #FootpathFriday? Na gut, da hab ich echt mehr als genug Bilder. Hier eins aus #Cornwall, ist ja schließlich auch #MeerMittwoch! Das sind Überreste der #Botallack #Mine, die da über dem #Atlantik thronen. Genauer gesagt die Engine Houses der Crown Mines. Abgebaut wurden hier bis 1895 Zinn, Kupfer und Arsen. // But it isn't #FootpathFriday yet! Oh well, I have more than enough photos of footpaths and #hiking #trails. Here's one from Cornwall, because it's #SeaWednesday too! These are some of the ruins of the #BotallackMine, the Crown #Mines engine houses, to be exact. The mines produced tin, copper, and arsenic until 1895.

The image shows a scenic view of Botallack Mine in Cornwall. The Crowns Engine Houses, remnants of the mine, stand on a rugged, rocky cliff face overlooking the deep blue sea. The cliff is covered in green grass and purple heather, with a dirt path winding down towards the engine houses. The sky is clear and blue.

A nice evening last night at Botallack. What an ewe inspiring view this is. #botallack #stjust #nationaltrust #photography #cornwall #photography #landscape #seascape

Botallack in Cornwall. Seascape scene with rugged rocky coastline and two tin mines perched on the cliff edge known as The Crowns

Remembering my #Cornwall trip

This is taken in the west of Cornwall. A former submarine mine with tunnels extending under the sea in #Botallack. Since 2006, it has been part of the UNESCO World Heritage Site.

Ruins of The Botallack Mine by the cliff, some walls still standing, and a standing chimney still intact

Botallack yesterday photographed by my husband.

The Crowns Engine Houses are such an iconic Cornish landmark.

The deep blue ocean foaming in on the rocks at Botallack. The ruins of the Crown Tin mines precariously positioned on the rocks. It's a day time photo with a blue sky and a few fluffy looking clouds

We visited one of my favourite places again today, the disused tin mines at #Botallack in #Cornwall
Just how anyone could work in such a precarious location is beyond me. Its such a beautiful place but I'd be terrified of going into those mines, it must have been a very dangerous way to earn a living.
I didn't see any #Choughs which was a shame as I've spotted them here before, they're still a reasonably rare sight. We certainly don't have any on the Isle of Wight.
