Barkla Shop is a small hamlet in mid Cornwall, England, United Kingdom half-a-mile east of St Agnes.
When the railway was built rock was brought from the Wheal Liberty quarries by horses, and the blacksmith's shop was important to properly maintain the horses.
[2][3] The Mithian post office is located in Barkla.
[4] The Glen Carne Housing and Support organisation has a location in Barkla Shop, for long term housing while homeless men gain training and education, such as in Information Technology or horticulture.
