About

Haverfordwest's Castle ward centres on the historic core of the county town, defined by the steep slopes of the River Cleddau. The ruined Norman castle, built on a prominent rocky outcrop, overlooks the tight network of streets below. This area functions as the primary administrative and commercial hub for Pembrokeshire, housing the county council offices, law courts, and a concentration of shops and services.

The ward's layout reflects its medieval origins, with narrow lanes like Market Street leading down to the old river crossing at the medieval bridge. Riverside walks along the Cleddau provide views of the castle's substantial stone fortifications. The area includes the site of the former St Thomas' Green and the historic St Mary's Church, which sits within the castle's outer defensive perimeter.
