Title: Churches - Central Mine Methodist
Photographer: Earl Gagnon
Subject Headings: Buildings - Church Buildings, Human Settlements - Cities and Towns,
Condition: Good
Description: The only vital Central Mine structure is this methodist church used once each year for a Cornish Reunion. Descendents of former Cornish persons employed at the mine have kept alive a tradition of meeting once each year to recall early mining days. A few other buildings exist on the Central Mine site but they mostly are used as hunters' cabins or for brief summer lodging. Uninhabited in winter, Central truly is a ghost town.
