It is early days but we have already got nine excellent collections for you to view at your leisure. Just click on the painting of the Brewery Office to access the collections and start browsing. We are sure you will enjoy looking at the photographs which show Hayle as it was all those years ago.

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.

Three photos in our archive showing J & F Pools' old office, J & Pool workers during WWII and Mr Bickle in the 144" cylinder.
