The village is situated on the southeast flank of Bodmin Moor approximately two miles (3 km) north of Liskeard.[1] The population of the parish in 2001 numbered 3257.[2] This includes Common Moor and had increased to 3,297 at the 2011 census.[3] An electoral ward also exists.

St Cleer parish church, at an elevation of approximately 690 feet (210 metres), is dedicated to Saint Clarus. Its three-stage tower is 97 feet (30 metres) high and contains a ring of six bells.[2] First built in 800 but rebuilt in the 13th century, the tower suffered damage and was repaired in the 15th century.
