About

The Altarnun & Stoke Climsland ward encompasses a rural expanse in east Cornwall, characterised by rolling farmland and the upper reaches of the River Lynher. The landscape is defined by scattered hamlets, historic churchtowns, and working agricultural holdings. The area is crossed by the A30, providing a major transport route, while smaller lanes connect the settlements of Altarnun, Stoke Climsland, and Polyphant. This is a sparsely populated region where parish churches and traditional stone buildings anchor the community.

A notable feature is the presence of the historic Jamaica Inn on Bodmin Moor, located within the ward's boundaries on the high ground near Altarnun. The geography includes areas of open moorland transitioning into wooded river valleys. Economic activity has historically been linked to farming, alongside some small-scale quarrying for Polyphant stone, a distinctive local granite. The ward maintains a quiet, agricultural character distinct from Cornwall's coastal tourist centres.
