About

St David's ward encompasses the westernmost tip of Pembrokeshire, centred on Britain's smallest city. The area is defined by a dramatic coastline of cliffs, bays, and offshore islands. The landscape is largely rural, with farmland and the wide expanse of St David's Head. The city itself functions as a community hub with local services, shops, and the historic cathedral precinct.

The coastline is a dominant feature, with the Pembrokeshire Coast Path tracing its edge around the peninsula. The area includes the tidal expanse of St Non's Bay and the exposed rocks of Ramsey Island visible from the mainland. Life here is closely connected to the sea, with activities often focused on coastal access, local maritime heritage, and the surrounding protected natural environments.
