St Clement

St Clement is a civil parish and village in Cornwall, England, quietly set southeast of Truro in the gentle valley of the Tresillian River. Its parish encompasses a small cluster of settlements: the larger village of Tresillian lies 1.4 miles (2.3 km) to the north‑east of St Clement village itself, while Malpas marks the southern edge of the parish. Though the urban part of the parish became part of Truro in 1895, St Clement retains a sense of its own identity within the Cornish landscape. The remainder of the parish recorded a population of 1,064 at the 2011 census. For visitors who enjoy tracing a place by its geography and history rather than by big landmarks, St Clement offers a quietly rewarding experience — a riverside valley setting close to Truro, with neighbouring villages that speak to the parish’s long local story. It’s a reminder that Cornwall’s charm often lives in the small communities and river valleys tucked just beyond the city limits.
