In 2011 this population had increased to 9,900. Away from the coast, much of the parish is rural in character but it also encompasses the sizeable urban areas of Bude and Stratton. Other settlements include Poughill (formerly a separate parish), Bush, Flexbury, Lynstone, Maer, Northcott, Thorne and Upton.〔(Cornwall ); Explore Britain〕 Bude–Stratton originated in 1900 as an urban district but was demoted in 1974 to a civil parish in the North Cornwall District.〔(Vision of Britain )〕 Since April 2009 the District has been abolished and replaced by Cornwall Council. Bude–Stratton is part of the North Cornwall parliamentary constituency, which is represented by Dan Rogerson MP.
