Update to the website - 4 October 2012

A history of Hayle can be found on the Harvey’s Foundry Trust website HERE


Some stories of Hayle, from the pens of Georgina Schofield and Kath Mullinger, have been added to the website.  See the link in the menu above. The stories originally appeared in the Hayle Pump.

Welcome to the Hayle Archive website. This is the 'door' to the Hayle Archive database where you can view the photographs and details of items in the Hayle Archive which are stored at the Old Brewery office, Sea Lane, Hayle (just down from the Police Station).

The Archive was created to provide a means of recording and keeping the Heritage of Hayle in a safe environment and to provide easy access to the Archive for anyone wishing to browse its contents. Therefore, if you have any photographs, books, documents, maps etc you would like to donate to the Archive please contact us. If you would prefer to keep them yourself but do not mind us taking copies for the archive then we would be happy to do that.  Whatever you do, do not let your versions of Hayle’s past go mouldy in the attic. They could fill a vital gap in the history of the Town.

Visiting the Archive for the first time? Go to this page for a map and directions.

The Archive is open on Tuesdays and Thursdays
from 10am to 1pm.

Hayle Community Archive has many photos of the area of which these are just a sample.
