Tenby
Tenby is a walled seaside town in Pembrokeshire, Wales, on the western side of Carmarthen Bay. Tenby is a local government neighborhood. Significant attributes consist of 2 1/2 miles (4.0 km) of sandy beaches and also the Pembrokeshire Coast Path, the 13th century medieval community walls, consisting of the 5 Arcs barbican gatehouse, Tenby Museum as well as Art Gallery, the 15th century St. Mary's Church, as well as the National Trust's Tudor Merchant's House. The community is served by Tenby train station. Watercrafts sail from Tenby's harbour to the offshore reclusive Caldey Island. St Catherine's Island is tidal and has a 19th century Palmerston Fort. With its strategic placement on the far west coast of Britain, and a natural sheltered harbour from both the Atlantic Ocean and also the Irish Sea, Tenby was a natural settlement factor, probably a hill ft with the mercantile nature of the settlement potentially establishing under Hiberno-Norse influence. The earliest referral to a settlement at Tenby is in "Etmic Dinbych", a rhyme probably from the 9th century, preserved in the 14th century Book of Taliesin.
