Newbridge

Newbridge is a quietly located hamlet in the civil parish of Madron, set on Cornwall’s wild Penwith peninsula in the far west of England. It sits directly on the A3071, the road that links St Just and Penzance, and lies about three miles west of Penzance. The settlement’s location offers a sense of being tucked into the landscape of west Cornwall while remaining within easy reach of the larger town nearby. As a small community on a well-travelled route, Newbridge feels like a pause between places: a calm spot on the journey across the peninsula where the pace slows and the coast’s character can be sensed in the surrounding area. Whether passing through on the A3071 or noting its place on a map of Penwith, Newbridge presents the understated charm of Cornwall’s lesser-known settlements, quietly holding its place in the parish of Madron and the geography of west Cornwall.
