Latest updates from across the Cornish Mining region
The Cornish Mining World Heritage Site has just reprinted its free guide to Poldark filming locations across Cornwall.
This popular guide also links those sites which have made Poldark so special, with mining heritage attractions which have a significant eighteenth century aspect to their interpretation.
The Poldark stories owe much to Cornish history and heritage, which form the backdrop to the characters’ eventful and often turbulent lives. Mining forms a big part in the stories and we are sure that Ross Poldark would have approved of the international recognition bestowed on Cornwall and west Devon through World Heritage status.
To obtain a free copy of the Poldark guide, please visit your local Tourist Information Centre or visitor attraction.

The Poldark guide is part funded by Cornwall365, an initiative to build a network of all the major cultural players and tourism businesses in Cornwall.
Part of the Arts Council and Visit England Cultural Destinations initiative, Cornwall365 is creating new ways to identify and promote Cornwall’s cultural experiences to the visitor market.
