Haverfordwest is the county town of Pembrokeshire in Wales. It acts as the county’s primary business and administrative centre. Haverfordwest is the most heavily populated urban area in Pembrokeshire. However, according to the 2011 Census, the town has a permanent population of around 12042 people, which is a small loss from the 13367 inhabitants documented in the 2001 Census. The town has actually been English-speaking for centuries, however given that the town markets traded the goods of Welsh farmers to the north and east, there has always been a considerable Welsh-speaking influence and the air of a ‘frontier’ town. The suburb of Prendergast appears to have stemmed as an extramural Welsh dormitory, dating from the times when all agricultural trade had to go through the borough, and the afraid Normans before the break down of Anglo-Norman power in 1136 attempted to avoid Welshmen bearing arms from getting into within the castle walls after nightfall. In accordance with its status as a sub local hub-town, Haverfordwest continues to act as Pembrokeshire’s principal commercial and retail centre. Recent years have seen the development of the river-side shopping centre. More recently still there has been significant retail advancement in the suburb of Withybush on the borders of the town, with the opening of a number of large commercial chain stores. Haverfordwest is about 6 miles (10 kilometres) miles east of the village of Broad Haven, part of the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park and Britain’s only coastal national park, which draws in countless tourists each year. The closest boundary of the park is at Hanton Bridge 1.5 miles (2.4 km) southeast. The town is also the home of a variety of football, rugby, cricket and kayaking clubs.
