Trewidland (Cornish: Trewythelan)[1] is a hamlet in the civil parish of Dobwalls and Trewidland in east Cornwall, England. It is about two miles northeast of Duloe.[2] It is situated in the Looe Valley, which has been designated an Area of Outstanding Natural Beauty. It is a quiet village, with little by way of local services. The village shop and post office closed some years ago, as did the two Methodist chapels. There is also no pub in the village. Most residents rely on the local market town of Liskeard, approximately 3 miles away, for shopping and other local services. However, it does have a primary school, a village hall, and a snooker room.
