Goonhavern (Cornish: Goonhavar)[1] is a village in Cornwall, England, in the civil parish of Perranzabuloe.

[3] A traditional village show is held in the community hall in July, with prizes awarded for the local produce, flower arrangements, art, craft and photography.

[4] A railway branch-line to Perranporth and St Agnes ran through Goonhavern from c.1905 but the line was closed as part of the Beeching cuts and today there is little sign of its route through the village centre.

[citation needed] On 12 July 1940, during the Battle of Britain, three bombs were dropped on Rosehill Farm near Goonhavern, killing a bullock.

[5] Goonhavern has hosted Cornish wrestling tournaments for prizes in venues such as the field by the New Inn.
