Haverfordwest
Haverfordwest is the county town of Pembrokeshire in Wales. It works as the county's principal commercial and administrative centre. Haverfordwest is the most heavily populated urban area in Pembrokeshire. However, in accordance with the 2011 Census, the town has a permanent population of around 12042 people, which is a slim decrease from the 13367 inhabitants recorded in the 2001 Census. The town has been English-speaking for centuries, however given that the town markets traded the items of Welsh farmers to the north and east, there has always been a considerable Welsh-speaking prominence 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 pass through the district, and the fearful Normans prior to the deterioration of Anglo-Norman power in 1136 attempted to prevent 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 function as Pembrokeshire's primary business and retail centre. Recent years have seen the development of the river-side shopping centre. More recently still there has been considerable retail advancement in the residential area of Withybush on the borders of the town, with the opening of a number of big commercial chain stores. Haverfordwest is around 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 visitors every year. The closest border of the park is at Hanton Bridge 1.5 miles (2.4 km) southeast. The town is also the home of a number of football, rugby, cricket and kayaking clubs. For all of your home makeovers, make certain to identify trustworthy contractors in Haverfordwest to make certain of quality.
