Trewellard

Trewellard (from Cornish: Trewylard, meaning "Gwylard's settlement";[1] grid reference SW376337) is a small village on the north coast road between St Just and St Ives in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom.

The village is in an area of outstanding natural beauty and a Site of Special Scientific Interest (SSSI) due to the ancient tin workings and the penultimate working tin mine in Cornwall, Geevor, that closed finally in 1990.

Geevor is now a museum and forms part of the World Heritage Site of Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape.

Down the lane from Trewellard is Levant Tin Mine which was the site of a terrible accident in 1919 where 31 men were killed.

The Methodist Chapel finally closed in 2005 due to declining attendance and an ageing congregation.
