🛑 Little Petherick

Little Petherick is a village and former civil parish, now in the parish of St Issey, in north Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. It is situated two miles south of Padstow and 6 miles west of Wadebridge. Little Petherick lies in the valley of Little Petherick Creek, a tidal tributary of the River Camel: however, upstream of Little Petherick the creek ceases to be tidal. The village straddles the A389 Wadebridge-Padstow road which crosses the creek at the east end of the village on a Grade II listed 19th century bridge. In 1931 the parish had a population of 178. On 1 April 1934 the parish was abolished and merged with St Issey.
