Nancledra is a village in west Cornwall, England, UK. It is three miles (5 km) south of St Ives and four miles (6.5 km) north-northeast of Penzance.[1] Nancledra is a small village with a population of around 150.[citation needed] The village is in Towednack civil parish in the former mining area of Penwith peninsula.
A pub, The Engine, is situated at Cripplesease just outside the village, but Nancledra has no village shop or Post Office.[2] Nancledra School is situated one mile north of the village on the lane to Towednack at grid reference SW 492 367.[1][3]
The name of the village probably means valley of Clodri or valley of Cludri.[4]
Robert Morton Nance, one of the chief revivers of the Cornish language, lived in Nancledra.
