About

Pembroke's St Michael ward encompasses the historic core of the town, centred around the medieval castle and its surrounding streets.

Residential streets of traditional stone and terraced housing radiate from the main thoroughfares, creating a compact urban layout.

A network of public footpaths follows the old defensive lines, offering views across the water to Monkton. The area operates as the functional and administrative heart of the town.
