Dist:0.6km<br/>Leaning across the gate by the road east of Bridgerule leading up to Churchtown, with the shadow of a tree falling across this steep field on the slopes of a tributary of the nearby Tamar. The trees on the right are on the edge of a disused quarry.

Dist:0.7km<br/>The track is signed as unsuitable for motor vehicles. It links the lanes at Furze Cross to Churchtown, Bridgerule across a little valley, and St Bridget's Church can be seen in the background.

Dist:0.9km<br/>As in many Devon and Cornish parishes the Church Town at Bridgerule, comprising the ancient church and a few nearby houses, stands some distance outside the village. This historic photograph was taken by the grandson of the Revd Frank Hawker Kingdon who was Vicar of the parish for seventy years from 1888-1958.

Dist:1.2km southwest<br/>The penultimate station on the London & South-Western Railway's branch from Halwill Junction to Bude served the villages of Whitstone in Cornwall and Bridgerule in Devon, though not conveniently situated for either. The station itself is in Devon, though just west of the Tamar which forms the natural border of Cornwall, because the boundaries were adjusted to keep the whole parish of Bridgerule in one county. The line closed in 1966 and the station site is now used as industrial premises.
