The sett of this small mine extends between the junction of B3318 on the Penzance-St Just road (A3071) and Wheal Buller farm (Goonevas farm on older maps). The 1887 edition of the Ordnance Survey map indicates a single shaft just east of the old farm house, which was associated with Wheal Buller by Hamilton Jenkin. Comparison with modern maps shows that this area is now built over.
