Bude
Bude is a little seaside resort community in north east Cornwall, England, in the civil parish of Bude-Stratton as well as at the mouth of the River Neet (also recognized locally as the River Strat). It was sometimes previously referred to as Bude Haven. It exists southwest of Stratton, south of Flexbury and Poughill, as well as north of Widemouth Bay as well as lies along the A3073 road off the A39. Bude is twinned with Ergué-Gabéric in Brittany, France. Bude's coast faces Bude Bay in the Celtic Sea, part of the Atlantic Ocean. The population of the civil church can be located under Bude-Stratton. Its earlier relevance was as a harbour, and after that a resource of sea sand useful for boosting the moorland soil. The Victorians favoured it as a watering place, as well as it was a prominent seaside destination in the 20th century. In the 1951 Cornwall volume of The Buildings of England, Nikolaus Pevsner described Bude as "Not an eye-catching harbour-town compared to others in Cornwall and Devon", and also continues to say that the church is "unimportant".
