About

Porthleven, Breage & Germoe ward occupies a stretch of Cornwall's central south coast, centred on the historic harbour of Porthleven. The area extends inland across farmland and includes the neighbouring villages of Breage and Germoe. The landscape is characterised by a mix of coastal cliffs, small beaches, and rural fields. Porthleven's harbour remains a functional centre for fishing and boat repair, with its outer pier offering protection from prevailing south-westerly winds.

The ward contains several sites of historical significance, including the medieval wall paintings in Breage Parish Church. The area's geography is defined by the shallow valley of the Porthleven Stream, which flows into the sea at the harbour. Local agriculture and maritime activities continue to shape the economy.
