Alverton Cornwall Map

About Alverton

Alverton presents a gentle undulation of Cornish landscape, its character shaped by both agricultural heritage and its proximity to the coast. It lies 0.9 km north of Newlyn (from Newlyn: bearing 352°T, OS grid SW 461 299). Historically, Alverton's development has been closely tied to the fortunes of its neighbouring fishing port, Newlyn, with land use often reflecting the needs of the wider Penzance area. The surrounding countryside offers a pleasant mix of fields and hedgerows, typical of this part of the South West. While Alverton itself may not boast grand historical monuments, its existence is interwoven with the rich maritime and agricultural tapestry of West Cornwall. The close-knit feel of Alverton is evident in its residential areas, which blend into the broader urban sprawl of Penzance.
