Mine Chimney on Craddock Moor Part of the Craddock Moor Mine which is marked hereabouts and close to the West Caradon Mine; both of which jumped on the boom created by the nearby South Caradon Mine which hit a very productive lode of copper in the mid 19thC. "In 1846 we have a report on the Craddock Moor Mine in the grandly entitled 'The Railway Register and Record of Public Enterprise for Railways, Mines, Patents and Inventions' by Hyde Clarke Esquire stating: 'Craddock Moor, to the north-east of Caradon Consols, and west of West Caradon, is a splendid sett; but the workings are on a miserably small scale, and such as will never, we should think, prove it a mine. The engine is a small 22-inch cylinder, and the shaft, which is now only 18 fathoms deep, is on an inclined plane, and sinking on the course of the lode, at an expense of £30 per fathom. When we were there, two men were drawing up the stuff by means of the horse whim'."
