And on the current Masterpiece Classic - Poldark, set in Cornwall, England....the mine ruin looks very much like the ruin on VG - that was my daughter's first comment when she saw it on the TV. And I believe the miners on VG came from Cornwall?
Certainly did. See my earlier post. There are many mines like the VG one in Cornwall and reputedly, every mine in the world had/has a Cornishman at the bottom of it. So great were their mining skills. PS. My husband is Cornish and I lived there for over 20 years. A beautiful area.
