Forgotten mines, forgotten industries…We’ve all heard of the Beaconsfield gold rush, but who remembers the rush to asbestos, or the long search for coal? Do you remember sandsoap, or Loira and Dilston bricks? Did you know the best ochre in Australia is around the Tamar, and we used to have an ochre-based natural paint industry? This is the history of our great-grandparents’ toils, and the mines (including gold) that were forgotten.
