St Newlyn East

East Wheal Rose was a metalliferous mine around three-quarters of a mile (1.2 km) south east of the village of St Newlyn East and is around 4 miles (6.4 km) from Newquay on the north Cornwall coast, United Kingdom. The country rock at the mine was killas and its main produce was lead ore (galena), but as is usual when mining this mineral, commercial quantities of silver and zinc were also found and sold. Lead was found in the area in 1812 and in 1834 the mine was established, by 1846 the mine employed over 1,200 men, women and children.The two main lodes, called Middleton's Lode and East Lode, trended north-south. The ore they contained was in places very soft and loose and the killas was also not a particularly strong rock, necessitating extensive underground timbering, particularly in the shafts. Records show that the mine had more than twenty shafts on the two lodes, and the deepest workings were at 150 fathoms (900 ft).

Trevemper Bridge crosses the River Gannel, and was built in the early 19th century to replace the old packhorse bridge, first mentioned in 1613, which may date back to the 16th century.

Two arches were washed away by storm-water in 1839 and the bridge was consequently repaired with only one arch. It was closed to traffic in 1939 after a larger bridge had been built nearby in 1925, which carries the A3075 Trevemper to Chiverton Cross, Blackwater. Nearby is another ancient monument, Trevemper Mill.

Looking at the mill building from the road today, the old Mill house is on the left hand side and the converted mill is on the right. All that remains of the mill machinery on site are three millstones standing in front of the building and a small section of the old mill leat which used to feed into a small culvert to one side of the old bridge.
