A 19th-century Cornish mine engine house, now a museum showcasing the region's industrial heritage, featuring exhibits on mining history, geology, and the social history of the miners.
This place was a bit of a pain to find, as there is no car park. I parked up Ghyllside Ave. The woods is a nice walk, there are a few small waterfalls to see. Kids enjoyed climbing trees. Dog enjoyed running around too. We didn't see anyone else there when we were there.
Beautiful hidden gem no tickets needed, free to enter, little tricky to find/get to, but lovely when you do.
A fantastic muddy walk through a steep wooded valley, great fun with family and the dog. Hidden away, park at the end of Vale Road or on Ghyllside Avenue. There is no official path to Old Roar, but it sounds impressive. Little Roar is accessible and just as impressive.
We struggled to find it as you have to park on a street nearby and go down a narrow path to get to it. It was lovely but very overgrown, and there were no signposts to show us the different paths.
Wonderful place!!! I was not planning to go there , what was to be just a walk in Alexandra Park end up with this, but no regrets! I have discovered a really relaxing place and perfect for hiking!
Really lovely walk to a cool little waterfall
