The Burngullow dryers are just a small part of the China clay industry which was Cornwall’s major industry. In recent years the production of clay has fallen into decline as high costs in the UK has meant that companies have started moving production to cheaper Brazil. The site was used for drying and storing clay and was operational 24 hours a day, 7 days a week. It had its own branch line so that clay could be taken to the nearby Par docks for shipping worldwide. Things had been in decline a while, but the site was finally closed in 2006, which caused a little controversy as the owners Imerys had promised to invest £25 million in the local economy.
