Industrial Flame Plant

Tucked away near Tregrehan Mills, this contemporary gallery space showcases cutting-edge industrial art and sculptural works that play with fire, metal, and raw materials. The Industrial Flame Plant isn't your typical Cornish gallery - expect bold installations that challenge conventional notions of beauty through industrial processes and flame-worked pieces.

Art enthusiasts and anyone with an appetite for the unconventional will find plenty to ponder here. The work tends towards the abstract and conceptual, so it's probably not one for young children or those seeking traditional landscapes. Photography lovers will appreciate the dramatic interplay of light and shadow created by the metal sculptures.

Without confirmed opening hours, it's worth calling ahead or checking locally before making the journey. The gallery fits well into a broader exploration of Cornwall's thriving arts scene, particularly if you're staying at one of the holiday parks around Par Sands or Eden Valley. East Crinnis Holiday Park sits closest at just over a mile away.

Combine a visit here with the nearby Eden Project for a proper contrast - from industrial grit to botanical wonder in one afternoon. The location puts you well within reach of St Austell's china clay heritage sites too, making for an interesting industrial heritage trail through this less-touristy corner of Cornwall.
