Goonvean Engine Trust


The Goonvean Engine Trust was formed as a charitable organisation to restore the Goonvean pumping engine and promote the mining culture and history by enabling access for all.

Harvey & Co of Hayle.​


This 50″ Cornish beam pumping engine was built 1863 by Harvey & Co of Hayle, only installed at Goonvean China Clayworks 1910. Dismantled by Century millwrights in September 2008 and placed in store. It is hoped that it may be re-erected in a publicly accessible location.
