Community Assembly of Tywardreath
Serving, supporting and protecting our local community
About Us
The Community Assembly of Tywardreath located in Kernow is pronounced as its Cornish (Brythonic) meaning suggests Ti War Dreth, meaning 'House on the Beach' is a small hilltop village on the south coast of Cornwall, British Isles, about 3 miles (5 km) north west of Fowey. It is located in a sheltered spot overlooking a silted up estuary opposite Par and near the beach of Par Sands. Tywardreath was featured by Daphne du Maurier in her novel The House on the Strand. Although this was a fictional tale of drug-induced time-travel, the history and geography of the area was carefully researched by du Maurier, who lived in a house called Kilmarth (Brythonic: Kilmergh, meaning horses' ridge), 1 mile (2 km) to the south. It also appears in her 1946 novel The King’s General.

Community Assemblies are made up of residents concerned about a lack of democratic process at a local and national level, dedicated to preserving and asserting our inalienable rights and obligations to ourselves, the Earth and future generations.
