Whitland
Whitland is a village and also an area in Carmarthenshire, Wales, resting on the River Tâf. Whitland takes its name from its medieval Cistercian abbey. The monastery pre-dates Tintern and now is very much a ruin. The "white land" of the name (Latin: Albalanda) might refer to the renowned Ty Gwyn (English: White House) where Hywel's parliament fulfilled, to the monks' unstained woolen capes, or to the abbey's limestone. Whitland was liquified during Henry VIII's conversion to a reformed church. Much of its sedimentary rock was taken and used for other structures. The magnificent setup of the destroy and also the Abbey's format can still be checked out. A selecting ward of the same name exists consisting of the Henllanfallteg community with a total population of 2,272.
