Description
Pembroke & Around Through Time explores the fascinating history and development of this medieval walled town in Wales. From its origins as a prehistoric settlement to its current status as a tourist destination, the book reveals the many changes that have taken place over the last 100 years.
The story of Pembroke is one of contrasts, with evidence of human habitation dating back 10,000 years alongside the remains of a thriving port and agricultural centre. The town's castle, which dates back to the eleventh century, played a significant role in its history, including being the birthplace of Henry VII.
Through photographs and historical accounts, Pembroke & Around Through Time brings to life the story of this unique and fascinating place, shedding light on the many transformations that have shaped it over time.
