Kingsand (Cornish: Porthruw) and Cawsand are twin villages in southeast Cornwall, United Kingdom.[1] The villages are situated on the Rame Peninsula and are in the parish of Maker-with-Rame.

Until boundary changes in 1844, Kingsand was in Devon; however, Cawsand has always been in Cornwall. On the old county boundary between the two villages, the house Devon Corn still displays the boundary marker.[2]
