Lower Sticker

Sticker is a former mining village in south Cornwall, England. Tucked into the parish of St Mewan, this unassuming settlement offers a gentle encounter with Cornwall’s mining past. Visitors find a place that rewards slow discovery: a setting whose history is hinted at in the landscape and the rhythm of everyday life. Though small, Sticker sits conveniently close to larger hubs—St Austell lies just three miles (4.5 km) to the north‑east—making it an ideal, quiet base for exploring the wider region while returning each evening to a more reflective pace. The village’s ties to its mining heritage give it character, inviting curiosity rather than commerce. For those drawn to the quieter corners of Cornwall, Sticker feels like an intimate chapter in the county’s story, best appreciated at a leisurely pace. A short journey from St Austell places Sticker within easy reach, yet it remains distinctly its own place, quietly rooted in the parish of St Mewan and the enduring landscape of south Cornwall.
