I just came across this! That's Cal and Mino getting married!! And the other girls getting married and there's Gelly! I'm very close friends with your neice! Amazing what you find on RUclips!!

Watching this reminds me of playing in the fields there as a kid - I will never forget playing in the fields with my friend Sarah and a man was hiding in the long grass and leapt out at us. We were absolutely petrified and ran back to Masefield Drive where Sarah’s mother marched straight out armed with kitchen utensils and shouted like I’ve never heard before. I will never forget that. Great memories of Priory Avenue, Poets Corner - we used to live next door to your sister and G in Shakespeare (my Dad was a Serg)

Arrived in Haverfordwest in 1976 to install the passenger lift in the telephone exchange in Perrots Ave. I was recommended the Carmarthen Arms as a decent place to get some grub at lunchtime. I became friendly with the landlord at the time, a chap named Les Fynn. It became my watering hole for the duration of the contract and i met some great locals who were very accomodating. Ashley Owston who lived a few doors from the pub on Cartlett. I moved on travelling the country with my work until Les rang me at home in Manchester and persuaded me to relocate to Harford and help him run the pub .I had a great time in the following 18 months before moving to the Masons Arms for a short time. Many happy memories of the Arms working with Les and Tony.

Hi again Martin, great work again. You stir some souls with this just like your other videos. Sorry you were laughing too loudly in the County Hotel. Wanting to do similar here for a walk around Lower Solva. Need your help, delivery and expertise!! Hope all well.

Thank you for that walk around and sharing some of your personal history. Such a shame what's happened to the town center, during the 80's and 90's there were seas of people all doing their shopping and meeting up. It was a thriving town.

I lived in Broad Haven from 1970 - 1974 in my teenage years on Atlantic Drive.

Thank you for sharing , my Dad was from Haverfordwest and is now actually buried back there in St Martins church at the top of City Road, he is buried with his real mum who passed when my dad was only 18 mths old, his Dad my Grandfather remarried and lived in the house that had been his mothers and the house he grew up in, 40 Prendergast , I am actually in Martletwy at the moment as I come back to visit this area often as I have so many happy memories of holidays with my grandparents, I remember my granddads garden looking over Bridge meadow, now it’s Morrisons car park, I am sad to see so many empty shops in this beautiful town

Great video and great to see the old pictures as well! Did you know any of the Jones’s from Dew Street? My great grandfather David William Howard Jones was a saddler and later a postman in Haverfordwest from Dew Street. He was a freeman of the town as well.

Great video and really interested to see this! My family, the Rheads lived on Swanswell farm 100 years ago (Isaac Rhead) - I believe it’s now all holiday lets where the farm would have been (Swanswell Cl)? I read there was a Neolithic rock somewhere around there. I am up in North Wales but I am planning to visit some time.

i to was also was born in Haverfordwest in the70's and went to the mary immaculate school and then sir thomas picton school . I used to live in priory avenue and i could see the playing field from my bedroom window , sometimes the RAF wessex helicopter would land and transfer casualties to the county hospital as withybush wasn't around at the time . During my teenage years i would work alderwicks soft drinks at priory mill in the clay lanes

Great video, thanks for sharing. Glad you like the skatepark, I use it often, great fun.

do you remember a hotel by the name of scotchwell hotel?. i can't seem to find anything about it i used to party there in the 70's

Born and bred in Pembroke Dock and spent two great years 82-84 at college in Barn Street.Lots of great memories.The Kings Arms on Dew Street,The Friars in town,The old library (and the chip shop opposite, can't remember the name), Woolworths on castle square,the girls from Taskers school 😂 Swales music shop,Ocky Whites (had a girlfriend who worked there) ,the Masonic hall,the Quay street snooker hall (as shown on you video) I live in Germany these days but get back to Pembrokeshire every now and then

Great video of my birth home town (only 5 years earlier than yourself). Fond memories of my childhood.

It seems to me that to cure this ghost town, turn the new council buildings into a University of Art, with a monthly preforming drama production for the public. This fantastic town could be resuscitated back to life with some new young blood. If nothing is done it will look more like Chernobyl a town that been evacuated and abandoned because of health reasons, like boredom.

This is the second video I have watched about Haverfordwest, where are all the people ? It doesn't only look like a ghost town, it is one.

I had a many of pint at the Carmarthen Arms. lol Many many. It was a great place! I must have run into you at some point. We were there working at NavFac Brawdy.

My oldest daughter was born in the same hospital that you were. :) Cheers. Thanks for this video.

Thank you for sharing your memories, sounds like you had a great childhood. A lovely area of the country.

Thank you so much for the fantastic walk around. I really enjoyed this and really appreciate the effort you have put into this vlog. I'm looking forward to have few more like this. Very nicely done xx Thank you much appreciated. My Great grandmother used to live on winch lane . Granny Orchard

I used to live here but moved 7 years ago am moving back in July of next year though

Thank you for that. The family and myself will be going there next week. I see there's a car park which is handy. Swan Inn - here we come:)

Lovely video uncle Mart! 😍 Can you train Paddy to be as good as Bella please 😅

Lovely video again Martin, but the star of the show must be Bella.So young and so intelligent already 😀😀😀

Fabulous ,a great choice and video combination.

Thanks for uploading this video and taking us along, i have good memories of Little Haven when I was twelve the family holidayed in Bridge House and the Lady who owned and rented to my father, took a shine to me and it made my holiday the conversations we had and helping her with the Eels coming down the brook/sriver behind the house. I loved the stories of days when she was young and of Little Haven. An enduring memory that I find myself returning too now that i have the age of 57, funny how life returns to times when you were young and Old Haunts. I must see about taking a short stay when we are free of all restrictions.

So enjoyable and nice to see Sir Benfro where I was born and (partly Educated). Much new information with the benefits of splendid Digital and Drone Photography ( most of us were stuck with B+W Print photos when I lived there). There's always something new to discover. Thanks

My 'go to' place with Little Haven, swimming off 'The Point'. cycling from Haverfordwest '58 - '62. Fond memories,

Bellissima!!

God Bless the Kimpton family. Strength to Chris and Jo, and children.

Fab video Martin. Well done. You are achieving something I have longed to do. Upon return I will do something similar but in the North parts of Pembrokeshire near my hometown, Solva. Of course covering St. Davids, Fishguard, Haverfordwest and all parts inbetween. Would like to join you one day! How about it??

Like the comment at 7:25!!

Watching again with interest. Confused at 7.01 in - as there's clearly a footpath ahead - but then someone has put up a "No entry" sign (very naughty of them).

just gone on my list of places to visit

Thanks Robin I’m simply using an iPhone to video. If you know of a microphone that would work to cut the wind noise I’d be grateful. All the best Martin

I enjoyed the video ,quite natural ,almost as if you were there . Don't know what you used to do the video but obviously it was quite windy and picking up the wind noise . Perhaps you could cut that down with some foam . I 've clicked on subscription and will get back later . thank you .

Beautiful footage Pembrokeshire is also my country and I’m always looking for new things to film and Photograph.... new subscriber 👍🏴󠁧󠁢󠁷󠁬󠁳󠁿👍

Nice video! Thanks for sharing! At the end of the walk you are onto the volcanic rocks -- very hard, and a very different colour from the ORS. And yes, that looks like a large erratic -- must get over there again and check it out.....

some big waves there mate. I remember St Brides castle being St Brides hospital 60 years ago. well done.

Well done Mart, another fantastic video. Great to see the sea so rough.

Great memories Martin of my pre, and early teen years, when we used to come down most summers from either Berkshire or Surrey by steam train for our annual holiday😀 Thanks for this video!

Great job Min you are starting to get the hang of it, keep it up.

Great Min!

Great Mart, wonderful memories

Great video Martin

Great video Mart, really enjoyed it, will definitely try and get down there to take in that view!!!

Wonderful Mart, Pembrokeshire is truly amazing XXXX
