About

Truro East encompasses residential neighbourhoods and industrial estates on the eastern side of the River Truro. The area is primarily characterised by modern housing developments and retail parks, serving as a practical gateway into the city centre. Its landscape is defined by the river's tidal creeks and the main arterial roads that connect it to the rest of Cornwall, creating a mix of suburban living and commercial activity.

A notable landmark is the elevated stretch of the A390, which passes directly through the area, offering views across the river towards the city's cathedral spire. The presence of large supermarkets and business units reflects its functional role. The river itself, with its mudflats at low tide, provides a distinct natural boundary, separating this largely post-war development from Truro's historic core.
