West Cornwall (UK region)

[1][2] It is also used by Cornwall Council and Cornwall Housing as part of their resource allocation and area management plans, in which Cornwall is divided into three sections, west, central and east.

West Cornwall covers the area of the Penwith and Kerrier districts, stopping at Carrick which is central Cornwall.

[3][4] Some maps show West Cornwall as covering a smaller area, ending at a line between Hayle and Helston, making West Cornwall the distinct landform at the very South-Western tip of Cornwall.

[5][6] News outlets often use West Cornwall without any obvious correlation to either way of defining the area, but simply to refer to anywhere west of Truro.

[10] Penzance, St Ives, Hayle, Helston and Land's End are notable places located in West Cornwall.
