I don't know John, you could be right. Might be worth a bit of research Smile

On another note I was thinking of the railway line that's collapsed in Dawlish, some lines used for industry were built in the 18th century, and that's suddenly not there anymore.

Probably wrong John, but it was the word suddenly that got me thinking.

If we're looking for something that was suddenly not there John, I'm thinking it either collapsed, burnt down or has been washed away. Problem is other than the railway line I can't put my finger on anything else at the moment. The Holbeck Hall Hotel in Scarbourgh slid into the sea in 1993 but I'm certain it wasn't 18th century. I also have a suspicion we might we looking for somewhere Cornish, this is Vince Smile

I did give thought to the Geevor Tin mine John, I think it stopped being a working mine in the mid 80's and it's a museum now. But I don't know where the day of the week fits in Undecided

  Ruth is right to suspect Cornwall but we are no where near the tin or copper mines.
