About

Poundstock and Kilkhampton are neighbouring parishes in northeast Cornwall, bordering Devon. The area is characterised by rolling farmland and wooded valleys, with the River Neet flowing through. Kilkhampton serves as a local centre with essential services, while Poundstock is more dispersed, centred around its historic church. The landscape is one of quiet lanes and traditional stone-built farms, reflecting its longstanding agricultural character.

The coastline here is part of the rugged Bude to Hartland Heritage Coast, with the beach at Duckpool offering dramatic views. A notable local landmark is the 15th-century St. James' Church in Poundstock, which houses the unique Gildhouse, a medieval church house used for parish feasts and gatherings. This historic building, standing separate from the church itself, is a rare survival of its kind in the region.
