Cornwall’s Man Engine has won a public vote to be named best arts project in the National Lottery Awards.

The giant mechanised miner made a triumphant tour through the Cornwall and West Devon Mining Landscape World Heritage Site last summer, drawing huge crowds wherever it stopped including in the Tamar Valley, on Kit Hill, at Minions, in Liskeard and at Lostwithiel.

Will Coleman and Golden Tree Productions were presented with their award by comedian and writer David Baddiel.
