Extent

Falmouth Trescobeas represented the north west of the town of Falmouth, including Mongleath and Falmouth School. Although the division was nominally abolished in 2013, this had very little effect on the ward. Both before and after the boundary changes, the division covered 149 hectares in total.[2][3]
