About

The Arwenack ward covers the central and eastern sections of Falmouth town. It includes the historic town centre, the main shopping streets, and the inner harbour area. The land slopes down to the waterfront, where the Carrick Roads estuary meets the town. The ward contains residential streets, commercial properties, and several public green spaces like Kimberley Park. It is a densely populated urban area with a mix of housing types and local services concentrated in its core.

This area is historically significant as the original settlement from which Falmouth grew. The remains of Arwenack House, the former manor of the Killigrew family who founded the town, are located here near Pendennis Point. The National Maritime Museum Cornwall is a prominent waterfront feature. The ward's geography is defined by its relationship to the deep-water harbour, with piers and marinas lining its southern edge.
