Once A Thriving Cornwall Charcoal Industry
The Cornwall region once relied on charcoal burning as a major wood industry. Workers used six horse teams and heavy piles of wood built around a central pole, covered with earth and bark to create a slow burn lasting days. Veterans recall haulers and wood choppers, while rail passenger notes mark the era’s decline as modern transportation and fuel shift ended the practice.
