Fletchersbridge

Fletchersbridge is a small hamlet tucked into the valley of the River Fowey, about 2 miles (3.2 km) east-south-east of Bodmin in Cornwall. Sitting at around 47 metres (154 ft) above sea level, it belongs to the civil parish of Bodmin and falls within postcode district PL30 in the South West region. Quiet and unassuming, Fletchersbridge occupies a gentle riverside hollow that speaks of rural Cornwall’s understated landscape. Close to the historic town of Bodmin, the hamlet’s location in the Fowey valley offers a clear sense of place within the county of Cornwall, framed by the river and the surrounding countryside. For those cataloguing the small settlements of the area, Fletchersbridge is a concise example of a Cornish hamlet—modest in scale but distinct in setting, a brief and sincere stop within the broader mosaic of the South West.
