Carn Galver Mine
Highlight • Monument
The mine was operational for only 20 years with only 150 tons of tin produced. The two ruins closest to the road are engine houses. The wall of the chimneyed building was destroyed to fill in the mine when it closed. The Count House, off to the north from the car park, is now used by Bosigran Climbing Club to store their equipment.

Mên-an-Tol
Highlight • Historical Site
This site can be visited at any time of the day or night - but one should not be disappointed with the "size" of the site. The megaliths look huge in photos, but in reality they are only between 1 m and 1.5 m high.
