Haverfordwest, Medieval county town in Pembrokeshire, Wales.
The Western Cleddau River divides Haverfordwest into sections, with ancient stone bridges connecting different parts of the commercial district and residential neighborhoods.
During the Elizabethan period, Haverfordwest operated as the second largest port in Wales until the railway arrival in 1853 changed maritime transportation patterns.
The Town Museum, located in the former prison governor's house within castle walls, presents exhibitions about local history and regional artistic expressions.
The Friday farmers market along the riverside offers fresh produce, while numerous independent shops occupy both the town center and peripheral retail areas.
Archaeological excavations in 2022 discovered remains of 307 individuals beneath a former department store, revealing an unexpected medieval burial ground.
