Including Calvadnack Sett. Several mines operated within the moorland region spanning from Penmarth to Halabezack. Despite periods of significant activity occurring primarily between 1862 to 1873 and 1926 to 1928, only modest amounts of tin were extracted. Today, remnants such as shafts and small waste heaps can be found east of the road leading into Penmarth.
