An account of the resource
<p><img style="float: right; margin-left: 10px;" src="/cm-images/wheal-martyn-logo.png" alt="Wheal Martyn Museum" />Wheal Martyn is Britain’s only china clay museum. It has a large and important collection of photographs and film documenting over 130 years of the china clay industry in mid-Cornwall.</p>
<p>The collection shows the evolution of china clay extraction over the twentieth century, with images of horses, water-wheels, beam engines, and locomotives. More recent photographs show how mechanised extraction has altered the landscape of the area. Community life in the ‘Clay Country’ is also shown through images of the Bugle Band Contest, pantomimes, pensioners’ dinners, sports events and the impact of the World Wars.</p>
<p>The Wheal Martyn China Clay Museum occupies a 26 acre site which includes the Victorian remains of two former china clay works, just two miles from St. Austell in the heart of the Clay Country. The site incorporates a visitor attraction, Accredited Museum, Scheduled Ancient Monument, woodland walks and spectacular views into the Wheal Martyn clay pit, which still operates today.</p>
<p>Wheal Martyn is open daily from 29th March to 30th October between 10am and 5pm and from 31st October to 23rd December between 10am – 4pm.</p>

<p><img style="float: right; margin-left: 10px;" src="/cm-images/wheal-martyn-logo.png" alt="Wheal Martyn Museum" />Wheal Martyn is Britain’s only china clay museum. It has a large and important collection of photographs and film documenting over 130 years of the china clay industry in mid-Cornwall.</p>
<p>The collection shows the evolution of china clay extraction over the twentieth century, with images of horses, water-wheels, beam engines, and locomotives. More recent photographs show how mechanised extraction has altered the landscape of the area. Community life in the ‘Clay Country’ is also shown through images of the Bugle Band Contest, pantomimes, pensioners’ dinners, sports events and the impact of the World Wars.</p>
<p>The Wheal Martyn China Clay Museum occupies a 26 acre site which includes the Victorian remains of two former china clay works, just two miles from St. Austell in the heart of the Clay Country. The site incorporates a visitor attraction, Accredited Museum, Scheduled Ancient Monument, woodland walks and spectacular views into the Wheal Martyn clay pit, which still operates today.</p>
<p>Wheal Martyn is open daily from 29th March to 30th October between 10am and 5pm and from 31st October to 23rd December between 10am – 4pm.</p>

<p><img style="float: right; margin-left: 10px;" src="/cm-images/wheal-martyn-logo.png" alt="Wheal Martyn Museum" />Wheal Martyn is Britain’s only china clay museum. It has a large and important collection of photographs and film documenting over 130 years of the china clay industry in mid-Cornwall.</p>
<p>The collection shows the evolution of china clay extraction over the twentieth century, with images of horses, water-wheels, beam engines, and locomotives. More recent photographs show how mechanised extraction has altered the landscape of the area. Community life in the ‘Clay Country’ is also shown through images of the Bugle Band Contest, pantomimes, pensioners’ dinners, sports events and the impact of the World Wars.</p>
<p>The Wheal Martyn China Clay Museum occupies a 26 acre site which includes the Victorian remains of two former china clay works, just two miles from St. Austell in the heart of the Clay Country. The site incorporates a visitor attraction, Accredited Museum, Scheduled Ancient Monument, woodland walks and spectacular views into the Wheal Martyn clay pit, which still operates today.</p>
<p>Wheal Martyn is open daily from 29th March to 30th October between 10am and 5pm and from 31st October to 23rd December between 10am – 4pm.</p>

<p>Clive Carter was perhaps best known for his many publications on Cornish themes, in particular shipping and shipwrecks. Clive amassed a prestigious photographic collection of salvage, wartime activity, rescue, lifeboats, fishing, ports and harbours, spanning over 100 years of Cornish history.</p>
<p>The collection features locations around the Cornish coast, from Bude to Penzance and on to Polperro, taking in the Isles of Scilly on the way. There are even photographs of ships in such far-flung places as Devon.</p>
<p>Clive’s collection was bequeathed to the Cornish Studies Library and many of the photographs from the collection are presented online here for the very first time.</p>
<p><span>Some of these images can also be viewed by browsing the images available through the statutory archive </span><a href="https://kresenkernow.org/">kresenkernow.org</a><span>.
