About

Bodmin West covers the western portion of Bodmin town and is largely residential, with a mix of terraced streets and later housing estates. Local services include a small parade of shops, a primary school and a community centre that hosts clubs and events. Pockets of green space, allotments and short walking paths are woven between streets, and the tower of the parish church of St Petroc rises above the roofline as a familiar town landmark.

Everyday travel is based around local bus links and short journeys into the town centre for further shops and services; the heritage Bodmin and Wenford Railway and Bodmin General station are within easy reach of the area. Small light-industrial units and independent traders provide local employment. Community groups maintain allotments and manage seasonal activities, giving the area a steady local rhythm rather than a focus on tourism.
