Leeds Engine House & Stack 2024
This was part of Great Work Mine of 1538, and by 1854 employed about 300 people. The complex was originally worked by three engine houses and consisted of a whim engine house, a stamps engine house and a 60-inch pumping engine house was on Leeds' shaft. By 1868 the mine produced copper as well as tin, but by 1930 the mine had closed. All that remains is one engine house with a very fine and unusual chimney.
