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 ?thelred 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.

Situated just off the A30, Dunheved Road offers easy access to Cornwall?s scenic coastlines and Devon?s countryside. The area is popular with families and professionals seeking a blend of heritage charm and modern convenience.
