Holmbush, Cornwall
Holmbush is a village in Cornwall, England, UK. It is half a mile east of St Austell.〔Ordnance Survey ''One-inch Map of Great Britain; Bodmin and Launceston, sheet 186''. 1961.〕 It was a centre for tin and copper mining in the eighteenth and nineteenth centuries, with a few houses to the south of the A390 road. It was developed in the 1970s, with the construction of housing and an industrial estate to the north of the road. Since 1974, the site of Cuddra mine has been developed as Pine Lodge Gardens, an attraction holding over 6,000 varieties of plants, many collected by the owner on plant hunting expeditions.
== Development==
Most of Holmbush is comparatively recent. In the 1880s, the main centre of population was on the south side of what is now the main A390 road, sandwiched between the road and the railway to St Austell. To the north of the housing was the West Wheal Eliza tin mine. To the north east was Wheal Eliza Consols tin mine, while to the east, Cuddra tin and copper mine was already disused, and further east was the disused South Cuddra copper mine.〔Ordnance Survey, 1:2500 map, 1882 (available (here ))〕 By 1907,Cuddra mine was no longer marked on the map, and West Wheal Eliza and Wheal Eliza Consols were both marked as disused.〔Ordnance Survey, 1:2500 map, 1907〕 No further development is obvious on the 1963 map〔Ordnance Survey, 1:10,560 map, 1962-1963〕 but the 1971 map shows the development of housing to the north of the main road, with a few larger buildings to the east, which is now the site of the industrial estate.〔Ordnance Survey, 1:2500 map, 1970-1971〕 The 1977 map shows the Wheal Eliza cricket ground, constructed in 1973 on part of the West Wheal Eliza site, which was first used for Minor Counties Championship matches in 1982, when Cornwall played Dorset.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Minor Counties Championship Matches played on Wheal Eliza, Bethel, St Austell )〕 Modern maps still show tips between the cricket ground and the industrial estate and at Cuddra. The main area is marked as Cuddra Plantations, and is the location of Pine Lodge Gardens and a nursery. Wheal Eliza Consols is still named.〔Ordnance Survey, 1:2500 map, 2010〕
