Extent

Newlyn and Mousehole represented the villages of Mousehole and Paul, the hamlets of Sheffield, Trereife and Tredavoe, and most of Newlyn (part of which was covered by the Pezance Promenade division).[2]

The division was nominally abolished during boundary changes at the 2013 election, but this had little effect on the ward. From 2009 to 2013, the division covered 612 hectares in total; after the boundary changes in 2013, it covered 610 hectares.[2][3]
