Trewen is a small, largely rural civil parish in east Cornwall, a few miles from the market town of Launceston in England. It’s made up of lanes, hedgerows and scattered farms rather than a single large village, giving it a quiet, agricultural character and a very small, close-knit population.
The landscape and built environment reflect a long agricultural history, with traditional stone farmhouses and an ancient parish church at the heart of the community; many residents work in farming or commute to nearby towns. Social life tends to revolve around local events and neighbouring communities, and the parish’s tranquility and rural setting attract walkers and those looking for a sense of Cornish countryside away from the busier coasts.
