Pydarshire

Pydarshire is one of the ten hundreds of Cornwall, along the middle north coast of the county, with the Hundreds of Penwith to the west, Triggshire to the north-east, divided from it by the River Camel and its estuary, and Powdershire to the south, divided from Pydarshire in the middle of Cornwall.

Pydarshire includes many of the famous seaside resort villages on Cornwall's north coast, and the abandoned mining landscape around St Agnes.

The ancient parishes of Powdershire are:
