Description
This is what the flywheel of the beam engine is connected to. Ropes were once wound on these drums and used to haul up the tin ore from the bottom of the mine.

The beam engine was steamed up and running when I took the photo so yes, some motion Jeff :)

I wonder how deep these went to reach the bottom. Must have taken a long length of rope!
