About

Liskeard South & Dobwalls ward lies in the eastern reaches of Cornwall, centred around the historic market town of Liskeard and the neighbouring village of Dobwalls. The area is characterised by a mix of residential neighbourhoods and surrounding agricultural land, with the A38 trunk road providing a major transport link through the landscape. The topography is gently rolling, typical of this part of the Cornish countryside, with wooded valleys and fields defining the outskirts of the communities.

A notable local feature is the Golitha Falls on the River Fowey, a series of cascades within a National Nature Reserve of ancient woodland. The area functions as a local service centre for surrounding rural parishes, with a focus on community facilities and daily needs rather than tourism, maintaining a quiet, residential character.
