About Fencing in St Agnes
St Agnes in Cornwall sits beneath St Agnes Beacon, a 628 foot hill used as a Bronze Age burial mound before later serving as a signal station warning of possible French invasion during the Napoleonic Wars. Surface mining has taken place around the village since medieval times, with underground workings recorded from 1692, and the dramatic ruined engine house at Wheal Coates, perched above the cliffs, remains one of the most photographed mining sites in Cornwall.
