Projected visitor numbers were 230,000 in the first year of business. Exhibitions are on show, as well as art and craft studios, botanical gardens, an adventure playground, cafe, water features and buildings to hire for weddings and functions. Based at the once-derelict Robinson's Shaft, £35 million was spent breathing new life into the land with a £22.3 million grant from Big Lottery Fund and other contributions.

    “I toally agree with you Poldice, the work done at the Heartlands project is fantastic, but there will always be people who moan that it is there. This comment will like yours be red flagged I suspect!”

    “Excellent news, a success story in an area that really did need one, the Grandchildren love it, I am impressed as are so many of my peers who remember Robinsons when it was in steam.
