The Community Assembly of Newquay (Standard written form: Tewynblustri) is located in a town on the north coast of Cornwall which is part of the Kernow Territory. It is a civil parish, seaside resort, regional centre for aerospace industries with an airport and a spaceport, and a fishing port on the North Atlantic coast.   

Newquay is bounded to the south by the River Gannel and its associated salt marsh, and to the north-east by the Porth Valley. The western edge of the town meets the Atlantic at Fistral Bay. 

The town has been expanding inland (south) since the former fishing village of New Quay began to grow in the second half of the nineteenth century.  The curve of the headland around what is now known as Newquay harbour provided natural protection from bad weather and a small fishing village grew up in the area. When the village was first occupied is unknown but it is not mentioned in the Domesday Book, although a parcel of land was recorded at Treninnick, which is now part of suburban Newquay. 

Treninnick was then part of the manor of Coswarth and consisted of one virgate [some 30 acres or 12 hectares] with five sheep. The village of Crantock is the only other recognisable name in the Newquay area also recorded in Domesday (as Langoroch).
