Historical Significance
Dunheved was the Southwestern Brittonic name for Launceston during the West Saxon period. The area played a role in early Cornish history, even hosting a mint during the reign of Æthelred the Unready around the 10th century. The name "Dunheved" itself evokes the town’s ancient status as a strategic and administrative centre.

Victorian Development
Dunheved Road was laid out following the arrival of the railway in 1865. A syndicate led by Mayor John Dingley designed it to be one of Launceston’s more upmarket residential streets, lined with elegant townhouses offering sweeping views. Its creation marked a turning point in the town’s expansion and modernization.

Modern-Day Dunheved
Today, Dunheved Road is part of the Launceston South electoral ward, known for its affluence, safety, and proximity to local amenities. It’s home to Launceston College, a key educational institution located at the southern end of the road since the 19th century.
