Harrowbarrow is a small village in Cornwall, England, set on the edge of the Tamar Valley between Calstock and Callington. It sits in a quiet rural landscape of rolling farmland, hedgerows and wooded river valleys, with lanes and vistas that reflect the area's mining‑shaped topography and attract walkers and visitors.

The settlement grew up during the 19th‑century mining boom and that industrial heritage still colours the local identity, even as farming, tourism and commuting to nearby towns play a larger economic role today. Harrowbarrow retains a close‑knit community feel, with local events and village facilities underscoring its distinctly Cornish character.
