| Wheal Owles was a tin mine near St Just in Cornwall, the site of a mining disaster in 1893 when twenty miners lost their lives and were drowned. Wheal Owles Mine pronounced `Oals` lies on the cliffs on the north coast of Cornwall, about a mile and a half northeast of Cape Cornwall in the St. Just mining area of north Penwith district. The mine is thought to have been an amalgamation of several smaller and more ancient mines including Wheal Drea, Wheal Edward and Wheal Gendall. |
