Ding Dong - Interesting name. Any history why the area is called that?	Posted by thelonious 17th June 2023ce


It's from the tin mine, but I don't know why the mine itself was called that. The engine house with its chimney is a very prominent landmark near Nine Maidens and visible from lots of other places in Penwith. Wiki has this about the mine and its name: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ding_Dong_mines	Posted by thesweetcheat 17th June 2023ce
