The newly-restored Carmears Tramway in the Luxulyan Valley has been officially opened.
Local volunteers, organisations involved in the restoration and around 60 children from Luxulyan School gathered at the World Heritage Site to mark the completion of the £30,000 project which has refurbished around a kilometre of the tramway.
Visitors will now be able to see the granite setts, chairs and two lengths of rail from the original tramway which has been uncovered as a result of the work between Treffry Viaduct and the Wheelpit.
