Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Exmouth House, Chacewater The house stands on The Terrace about 600 yards from the ruined engine house of the old Wheal Busy copper mine. Exmouth House was built around an original two-room cottage in about 1870 by the Harveys, a notable Chacewater mining family, for Samuel Harveys widow Philippa née Pellew (1807-86). She was the daughter of a past Captain of the mine, Israel Pellew, and a relative of a famous Cornishman, Admiral Edward Pellew, Lord Exmouth https://books.google.co.uk/books?id=2_ZstVBZSfIC&lpg=PP1&pg=PA80#v=onepage&q=&f=true , after whom she named the house. It was sold by her granddaughter sometime after 1902. Wheal Busy mine finally closed in 1920.
