Bude
Bude is a little seaside resort community in north eastern Cornwall, England, in the civil church of Bude-Stratton and at the mouth of the River Neet (likewise known in your area as the River Strat). It was occasionally previously known as Bude Haven. It lies southwest of Stratton, southern of Flexbury and also Poughill, and also north of Widemouth Bay and also lies along the A3073 road off the A39. Bude is twinned with Ergué-Gabéric in Brittany, France. Bude's coastline faces Bude Bay in the Celtic Sea, part of the Atlantic Ocean. The population of the civil church can be found under Bude-Stratton. Its earlier value was as a harbour, and then a resource of sea sand valuable for enhancing the moorland soil. The Victorians favoured it as a watering place, as well as it was a preferred seaside location in the 20th century. In the 1951 Cornwall volume of The Buildings of England, Nikolaus Pevsner explained Bude as "Not an eye-catching harbour-town compared with others in Cornwall as well as Devon", and also continues to claim that the church is "worthless".
