Description
This image was taken in the St Austell/ Par 'Clay Country' area
In the foreground stands a worker standing on a plank holding a pole possibly to keep the waterway clear. Behind him is a large tripod which would have been used for heavy lifting. Towards the right are 4 waggons containg the china clay. The china clay arrive on an adjacent line, there are 2 workers helping to unload these trucks into the waggons which will go on probably to Par docks. In the background can be seen the china clay heaps and the drying buildings together with the 2 chimneys.
