Ruan Minor, Cornwall

Owner's House for Serpentine Quarries and Factory

Uploader's Comments

The site owner's or manager's house. In 1879, Mr Jabez Druitt came from London and bought the local quarries and the serpentine works. He lived in this house which overlooked the factory and the cove, probably more easily than it it would be today as considerable vegetation has grown up in recent years.
