Pascoe's Shaft today

Fortunately the area has been spared much of the urban re-development, construction of housing and industrial estates that has obliterated much of the surface evidence for the famous mines to the north of Carn Brea. It is only in the landscape between Carnkie and Piece that one can truly grasp the scale and extent of a large and successful 19th century Cornish mine. ( Sharpe 1992: 5). As you can see nature is taking over.
