Currently putting together the latest China Clay History Society newsletter before sending it off to print.
If you have anything you’d like to share relating to the history of #chinaclay in #Cornwall that I can turn into an article, I’d love to hear it.

What an entrance! Wheel Martyn China Clay Museum, Cornwall. #chinaclay #mining #kernow #cornish
The trouble with #landscape #archaeology is that you keep finding interesting things next to the thing you’re meant to be focusing on. A #ChinaClay mining palimpsest on the Hensbarrow uplands in mid #Cornwall. An earlier conical sky tip next to the massive Blackpool pit
More freight action, this time with 37043 'Loch Lomond' in charge. Imagine the sounds from a single Class 37 with this lot in tow.

A bit of a china clay session this evening. 47079 'G J Churchward' in its GW150 green livery, heads a rake of Polybulks and PBA wagons to the Potteries. To think this was once a daily occurrence.
