Menheniot is a small village and parish in south‑east Cornwall, England, set among rolling farmland and hedgerow‑lined lanes typical of the area. It lies within easy reach of the moors and the Devon border and is served by a local station on the Cornish Main Line, making larger centres such as Liskeard and Plymouth reasonably accessible for commuters and visitors.

The village has a long history reflected in its medieval parish church, traditional stone buildings and a past shaped by small‑scale mining and quarrying. Today the local economy is largely agricultural with a mix of small businesses, while community life is active around the village hall, church and local events that celebrate Cornish traditions. Menheniot retains a quiet, rural character with a strong sense of place and local identity.
