Description
The Cape Cornwall Chimney dates to 1589, with later alterations in the early 1850s. It is a tapering brick chimney built upon a tall, octagonal podium. The podium features arched panels and a brick cornice. The chimney served as a flue for an arsenic mine. It is dramatically situated on a headland and has historically been used by local fishermen as a navigational aid. The mine ceased operation around 1900.
