  • Penwith (kornisch Pennwydh) war bis zum 31. März 2009 ein District der Grafschaft Cornwall in England. Der Name wurde abgeleitet von den kornischen Wörtern 'pen' (Landspitze) und 'wyth' (am Ende). Er bezeichnet somit die südwestliche Spitze der Insel Großbritannien. Verwaltungssitz war die Stadt Penzance. Der Bezirk wurde am 1. April 1974 gebildet und entstand aus der Fusion der Boroughs Penzance und St Ives, des Urban District St Just und des Rural District West Penwith. Am 1. April 2009 wurden neben Penwith auch alle weiteren Districts in Cornwall abgeschafft und in einer einzigen Unitary Authority vereinigt. Seit 1974 unterhält Penwith eine Partnerschaft mit der deutschen Stadt Cuxhaven. (de)
