St. Paul's is a dispersed area of settlement in the central part of the island of Saint Helena, and is a district of the island. In 2008 the district had a population of 795, compared to a population of 908 in 1998.[1] This makes it more populous than the capital of the island, Jamestown. It is named after the Anglican St Paul's Cathedral, which is located there, and also within the district is Plantation House, the Governor's official residence. Other settlements in the district include New Ground and Thompson's Hill. The island's main school is situated in St Paul's — the Prince Andrew School.
The area lies adjacent to the district of Half Tree Hollow, a suburb sitting on the eastern headlands of the James Valley, at the base of which sits Jamestown, the administrative centre of the Saint Helena.
