Map of the UK

Bugle is a village in mid-Cornwall, south‑west England, lying a few miles north of St Austell in the county’s china‑clay district. It expanded in the 19th century with mining and transport links, and the surrounding landscape still shows the industrial imprint of pits, tips and old tramways.

Today Bugle has a close‑knit village community with local shops, schools and clubs, and an economy influenced by remaining china‑clay workings alongside commuting and tourism. Its position on rolling moorland makes it a handy base for exploring the historic mining country and nearby attractions such as the Eden Project and the Cornish coast.
