Tenby
Tenby is a walled seaside town in Pembrokeshire, Wales, on the western side of Carmarthen Bay. Tenby is a local government area. Remarkable attributes include 2 1/2 miles (4.0 km) of sandy beaches and the Pembrokeshire Coast Course, the 13th century middle ages community wall surfaces, including the 5 Arcs barbican gatehouse, Tenby Museum and Art Gallery, the 15th century St. Mary's Church, and the National Trust's Tudor Merchant's House. The town is served by Tenby train station. Watercrafts sail from Tenby's harbour to the overseas monastic Caldey Island. St Catherine's Island is tidal and also has a 19th century Palmerston Ft. With its critical setting on the far west coastline of Britain, and a natural protected harbour from both the Atlantic Sea and also the Irish Sea, Tenby was an all-natural negotiation point, most likely a hillside ft with the mercantile nature of the settlement perhaps establishing under Hiberno-Norse influence. The earliest reference to a negotiation at Tenby is in "Etmic Dinbych", a rhyme possibly from the 9th century, preserved in the 14th century Book of Taliesin.
