TRENGWAINTON GARDEN, nr Penzance Cornwall TR20 8RZ
A unique garden, perhaps more favoured for the cultivation of exotic trees and shrubs than any other on mainland Britain. The walled garden in particular contains many species which cannot be grown in the open anywhere else in the country. Intimate and closely linked to the stream running through its valley, the garden leads up to a terrace and summer-house with splendid views of Mount's Bay and The Lizard

CORNISH MINES & ENGINES, Pool nr Redruth Cornwall
Cornwall's engine houses are dramatic reminders of the time when the county was a powerhouse of tin, copper and china clay mining. These two great beam engines were used for pumping water (from a depth of over 550m) and for winding men and ore. The engines were originally powered by high-pressure steam, introduced by the local engineer Richard Trevithick. Today one is rotated by electricity. Nearby is the Geological Museum of the Camborne School of Mines, where the Trust's Norris collection of minerals can be seen
