Haverfordwest The scores of Iron Age and Roman coinage and artefact discoveries, and excavations by the Dyfed Archaeological Trust under the direction of Heather James at Carmarthen (Maridunum) in the 1980s, point convincingly to significant Roman penetration to this westernmost part of Wales. In 1992 aerial photography identified a Roman road running west of Carmarthen past Wiston to Poyston Cross, raising the possibility of Roman fortlets at strategic river crossings at Whitland and Haverfordwest.
Haverfordwest St Mary's Church originated at the end of the 12th-century and the current (Grade I listed) building was constructed between the 13th and 15th centuries and prominently visible at the top of the High Street.
Haverfordwest During the English Civil War, the burgesses of the borough supported Parliament, while the ruling gentry were Royalist. As a result, there was considerable conflict, and the town changed hands five times. There followed a period of stagnation in which the comparative status of the town declined. Haverfordwest today has the air of a typical small country market town, but the centre still conveys the feel of the important mediaeval borough. The once run-down riverside area has been renovated and Bridge Street has been pedestrianised and improved.
Haverfordwest Haverfordwest is miles east of the village of Broad Haven, part of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park, Britain's only coastal national park, which attracts thousands of tourists each year. The closest boundary of the park is at Hanton Bridge southeast.
Haverfordwest There have been numerous calls over the years for the A40 trunk road between St. Clears and Haverfordwest to be upgraded to dual carriageway standard. The Welsh Assembly Government gave approval for this upgrade in 2002 but the plan was later axed in 2005 due to "spiralling costs".
