Coverack Bridges
Coverack Bridges (Cornish: Ponskovrek) is a hamlet in southwest Cornwall, England. It is situated southwest of Wendron in the valley of the River Cober just under one mile north of Helston.[1] The area is mainly farming now but has a history of well over 200 years of granite quarrying. The local quarry is still in business and is located just below the golf course along the banks of the River Cober.
