Cornwall Information & Accommodation Guide

North Battery Mine (also known as Battery Mine) was situated on The Island at St Ives.

At its 7 fm level it was driven 20 fms beneath the sea.

The geology of the site is greenstone with lodes running through it.

The Island (St Ives Head) exhibits evidence of ancient mining all along its northern shore.
