Carland Cross

Immediately north of the settlement, Carland Cross traffic roundabout is the junction of the A39 and the A30 trunk road. Since June 2024 the A30 has been a grade-separated dual carriageway at this point. To the south the A39 is a single carriageway. There is a motorists' services area, including a filling station, by the roundabout. Highways England's proposals for the Chiverton to Carland Cross improvement scheme were accepted for formal examination by the Planning Inspectorate in September 2018. Work started in 2021 with the overall scheme costing £330 million. ==Wind farm==

Carland Cross wind farm is to the north of the A30 with road access from the roundabout. It is the second oldest windfarm in the UK after Delabole, and was built in 1992. It originally had 15 turbines manufactured by Vestas each with a capacity of 400kW. However, the repowering was approved in May 2012 and the new windfarm was officially opened in October 2013 with the 10 new Gamesa turbines having a capacity of 2MW each.{{cite web|title=Official Opening For The Repowered Carland Cross Windfarm In Cornwall|url=http://www.scottishpowerrenewables.com/news/pages/official_opening_for_the_repowered_carland_cross_windfarm_in_cornwall.asp ==Antiquities==
