Pembrokeshire's Military Heritage

The military heritage of Pembrokeshire from the Bronze Age to the present day. This book will be of interest to all those who would like to know more about Pembrokeshire’s remarkable military history.

The county of Pembrokeshire has a long military history, and its heritage stretches back into the late Bronze Age. Even today ancient hill forts and coastal defences can be discerned in the landscape. Norman settlement in Pembrokeshire and Welsh resistance created monumental castles which are still prominent in the landscape, including Pembroke, Carew and Manorbier, and later the strategically important harbours on the coastline such as Milford Haven, Fishguard and Pembroke Dock were further fortified. During the First and Second World Wars, Pembrokeshire played an important role in the aerial war, with what became the world’s largest military flying boat station during the Battle for the Atlantic and numerous airfields inland, some continuing into the Cold War. With numerous memorials, a military cemetery and a roll call of gallant Pembrokeshire men and women through the centuries, this book will be of interest to all those who would like to know more about Pembrokeshire’s remarkable military history.
