Really interesting museum dedicated to the local industry. Good for all ages. A must see IMHO. Good cafe. Set in a nice valley with good walking/cycling trails around.

This museum houses artefacts and interesting information about the once thriving China Clay industry of Par and St Austell. Lovely Afternoon Tea.

The only China Clay Museum plus Country Park. Learn how clay is extracted from the ground and what it is used for. On site is an excellent cafe.

China Clay Museum. St Austell's history is closely associated with the china clay industry.

You’ll also see Cornwall’s largest working waterwheel and at ‘Pit View’ be amazed by the spectacular modern working China Clay pit with giant machines in action.
