Hanover Cove, St Agnes, St Agnes District, Cornwall, England, UK

UK Grid Reference: SW737532
Latitude: 50°20'4"N
Longitude: 5°10'49"W
A small cove, located about 1/2 a mile south of Cligga Head. To access the cove, one has to walk around the corner of the cliff at the south end of the beach. This is only possible at lowest tide, and when the sea is calm.

NOTE: The coastal stretch between Cligga Head and the cliff that separates the beach from Hanover Cove forms part of the Cligga Head locality. The mineralization of the lodes that crop out along the beach is the same or at least very similar to that found in the lodes in the immediate vicinity of Cligga mine. Hanover Cove is a separate locality with a somewhat different mineralization.
