Welcome to the Portreath Perambulate adventure lab cache. Portreath was above all a mineral harbour. Its industrial significance is thus bound up with this link to the local copper mines, at first around Scorrier, and later Camborne. As part of the earliest phase of the development of railways, and the parallel development of railways and port development, and through its connections with some of the great Cornish industrialists (the Basset, Fox, and Williams families),Portreath occupies a key place in Cornish industrial history. It also played a role in providing a holiday base for the working populations of the Camborne-Redruth mining districts in the 19th and early 20th centuries. This Adventure Lab will take you to 5 locations around Portreath where you will need to answer a question. At the last location you will be given the coordinates for the mystery bonus cache (GC8WF18). Please check the Journal at the end for the bonus info. The walk should take no more than about an hour to complete.
