The earliest evidence we see today of settlement in Haverfordwest is from the
12th century when the very first Norman castle was established, but recent
archaeological evidence suggests that there may well have been earlier
settlements in the area as far back as Roman/|Iron Age times.

From the middle ages the town took advantage of its position on the coast and as
a result it had a very busy tidal quay, today the town still has a thriving
commercial and retail sector.

The town has plenty of history and landmarks that illustrate its colourful past
and for those visiting the town the Haverfordwest Information Centre will
provide you with details of places to visit in the area.


A visit to the Town Museum is a must as this facility gives visitors a glimpse
of the town’s rich heritage. There are various sections in the museum covering
the civic aspects of the town with information on the past Mayors and mayoral
regalia on display.

On the industrial /commercial side you will see photographs and exhibits which
show the various aspects of industry that have existed in the village, one of
the largest employers being the Maryland Foundry which at its peak employed
hundreds of workers casting items such as agricultural equipment to fancy goods.

For art lovers there is a section on paintings and prints by local artists
depicting local scenes and dignitaries along with paintings on loan from the
Pembrokeshire Permanent Art Collection at Scolton Manor.
