Abstract:		 Article highlighting the importance of the often overlooked granite industry in Devon and Cornwall. Although surface stones had been used locally since prehistoric times, it was not until the 19th century that quarrying and an 'export' trade developed. The article summarises the industry during its most active period, when Penryn was the main centre, down to the depression of 1905-10 when there was almost total collapse in the face of Scandinavian competition. It goes on to discuss quarrying methods, the issue of waste, buildings associated with quarries, granite dressing, and granite yards. LD
