About this Assembly

The Community Assembly of Bude (Porthbud) is located in a seaside town in north Cornwall which is part of the Kernow Territory. Bude is situated at the mouth of the River Neet (also known locally as the River Strat). It was sometimes formerly known as Bude Haven.

Bude is twinned with Ergué-Gabéric in Brittany, France. Bude's coast is in the Celtic Sea, part of the Atlantic Ocean. Its earlier importance was as a harbour, and then a source of sea sand useful for improving the inland soil. This was transported on the Bude Canal.

The Victorians favoured it as a seaside resort. With new rail links, it became a popular seaside destination in the 20th century. Bradshaw's Guide of 1866, Section 2, described Bude as a small port and picturesque village in the north-eastern extremity of the country. It described the town as having the dignity of a fashionable marine resort with excellent facilities for bathers.
