About

Haverfordwest's Prendergast ward occupies a low-lying area directly east of the town's historic core, separated by the River Cleddau. It is primarily a residential district with a mix of housing, from Victorian terraces to more modern developments. The area is defined by its position along the river, with Prendergast itself historically being a distinct settlement before being absorbed into the town. Its streets slope down towards the water, creating a distinct topography.

The ward's key feature is the substantial Prendergast Bridge, a multi-arched stone structure that provides the main vehicular link into Haverfordwest from the east. Nearby, the medieval St. Mary's Church stands on a prominent knoll, its churchyard offering views across the river to the castle. The area retains a quiet, community-focused atmosphere, with local shops and schools serving its residents, set apart from the main commercial bustle of the town centre.
