The scene comes alive through a delicate watercolour by S. A. C. W. , showcasing the lead smelting works at Point.

The eye is immediately drawn to the towering chimneys that dominate the skyline, testament to an era when industry thrived amidst Cornwall's serene countryside. These imposing structures stand proudly against a backdrop of rolling hills and lush greenery, creating a striking contrast between man-made progress and nature's beauty. As we explore further into this snapshot of history, our gaze shifts towards the river that meanders gracefully through this idyllic setting.
