Description: | China clay, one of the main industries in Cornwall, was exported through Portleven until 1916. The harbour was built between 1816 and 1818, but it was not until the breakwater and inner basins with floodgates and sluices were added after 1854 that it became fully operative. | Subjects: | Waterscape Transport (Water) Harbour Coastal Townscape | Source: | English Heritage - Viewfinder | Creator: | Hesketh-Roberts, M | Identifier: | http://viewfinder.english-heritage.org.u... | Language: | en | Go to resource |
