Dist:0.5km<br/>Lower Boscaswell just outside Pendeen is a settlement originally consisting predominantly of housing for miners employed in the various mines in the area. In addition to several terraces of stone cottages like this one there is a lot of late-C20th social housing - an unusual occurrence in such a rural area.
