HC Deb 07 April 1937 vol 322 c192W
Mr. Kelly

asked the Secretary for Mines whether all the abandoned mines in Cornwall are recorded in the catalogue of mines; and was the tin mine which was recently flooded in Cornwall included in the catalogue?

Captain Crookshank

The Catalogue of Plans of Abandoned Mines is a record of all the available information, but there are old workings in Cornwall of which no plan or record is known to exist, and that was so in the case of the old workings, the water from which flooded the tin mine referred to in the question.
