Penwithick (Cornish: Pennwydhek) or Penwithick Stents^[1] is a village in Cornwall, England, United Kingdom. It is situated 2.5 miles (4.0 km) north of St Austell,^[2] in the civil parish of Treverbyn in the 'clay country' area of china clay quarrying.

There are plans to build a new settlement Baal & West Carclaze south of the village as part of the St Austell and Clay Country Eco-town. This would include 1,800 to 2,500 homes. The plan was given outline approval in July 2009.^[3]
