Boscawen or (Truro Boscawen) is a Unitary Authority Electoral Division and area of Truro, Cornwall in the United Kingdom. the elctoral area covers 164 Hectares of central Truro.[1][2] Boscawen Park is not located in the electoral ward but shares the same name. The name probably originates from Edward Boscawen, an Admiral and Member of Parliament from Truro.[3][4] The Rotary Club of Truro Boscawen is also based here.[5]
