Artist's Description
Two original miners' cottages at Luckett, Stoke Climsland, Cornwall, SW England, UK. The historically significant Grade II listed cottages are in their original nineteenth century state and are being preserved by the East Cornwall Mining History Association, a charity which needs donations to fund its work. The buildings were associated with the nearby mines at Luckett which closed in 1879. Both cottages have been unoccupied since families left to go abroad following the collapse of the local mining industry. Apparently up to 14 people occupied these buildings between long shifts. Children were often put to work at the mines. Estimates suggest that up to 40% of Cornwall's working age population emigrated in the C19th and early C20th to escape harsh living and working conditions. The local mines extracted and processed arsenic, copper, tin and gold ore. The site is within the UNESCO World Heritage Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape (no. 1215)
About Richard Brookes
Images exploring Devon & Cornwall's remote inspiring landscapes, breathtaking coast, ruins and shipwrecks in this beautiful part of SW England, UK. The stunning natural beauty of the area, which changes with the light, seasons and coastal climate, is constantly inspiring. There is so much history here too with human occupation spanning millennia. A photographer's dream. My photos are mostly taken spontaneously in less visited places or from unusual viewpoints. If they hold your attention, lift your spirit, make you ask questions, make you smile or fire your imagination and your wish to explore then it is more than enough reward....although you can buy prints too! ;)My photos mostly explore beautiful rural North Devon & Cornwall...
