• Tenby - Pembrokeshire ...
************************************************************************************
Tenby is a harbour town and resort in Pembrokeshire southwest Wales. It’s known for its 13th-century medieval town walls, including the Five Arches barbican gatehouse and its 2 1⁄2 miles of sandy beaches, including Castle Beach, North Beach and South Beach. Other notable features include the Pembrokeshire Coast Path and the 15th century St. Mary's Church. The ruins of Tenby Castle are on a headland overlooking the harbour. Exhibits at Tenby Museum and Art Gallery include a 16th-century wrought-iron cannon. The National Trust's Tudor Merchant’s House recreates domestic life in 1500, with a merchant's shop and working kitchen.
Boats sail from Tenby's harbour to the offshore monastic Caldey Island. St Catherine's Island is tidal and has a 19th century Palmerston Fort. The town has an operating railway station.
The Tenby town walls are Grade I-listed medieval defensive structures around the town of Tenby in Pembrokeshire. They are assessed as one of the most important surviving medieval city walls in Britain. The walls were built in the 13th century by the Earls of Pembroke and improved in the 1450s. They were last known to have been repaired in 1588 and have declined thereafter. Most of the town's gates were demolished beginning in the 18th century and only one survives.
In the Late Middle Ages, Tenby was awarded royal grants to finance the maintenance and improvement of its defences and the enclosure of its harbour. Traders sailed along the coast to Bristol and Ireland and further afield to France, Spain and Portugal. Exports included wool, skins, canvas, coal, iron and oil; while in 1566 Portuguese seamen landed the first oranges in Wales. It was during this period that the town was so busy and important, it was considered to be a national port.
In the mid 16th century, the large D-shaped tower known as the "Five Arches" was built following fears of a second Spanish Armada.
Through both the Georgian and Victorian eras Tenby was renowned as a health resort and centre for botanical and geological study. With many features of the town being constructed to provide areas for healthy seaside walks, due to the walkways being built to accommodate Victorian nannies pushing prams, many of the beaches today still retain good disabled access. In 1856 writer Mary Ann Evans (pen-name George Eliot) accompanied George Henry Lewes to Tenby to gather materials for his work Seaside Studies published in 1858.
In 1852, the Shipwrecked Fishermen and Mariners' Royal Benevolent Society deployed a lifeboat to the town, taken over in 1854 by the Royal National Lifeboat Institution. In 1905 a slip-way equipped lifeboat station was built on Castle Hill. It was replaced by a modern station in 2008.
Tenby railway station and the Pembroke and Tenby Railway were opened as far as Pembroke on 30 July 1863. In 1867, work began on the construction of the Palmerston Fort on St Catherine's Island. The Army had control of the fort during 1887-1895.
The old town castle walls have survived, as does the Victorian revival architecture in a pastel colour scheme. The economy is based on tourism, supported by a range of craft, art and other stores. As of April 2017, there are 372 listed buildings and other structures in and around Tenby.
Tenby United RFC, a rugby union club has existed since 1876. It is a member of the Welsh Rugby Union.
In 1970, the Tenby Sea Swimming Association started the Boxing Day Swim. It is Tenby's main Christmas attraction now, with approximately 600 swimmers, most in fancy dress, watched by thousands of onlookers. Each swimmer who enters for a charity receives a medal.
Tenby hosts the Welsh Ironman Triathlon in September. There is also the Tenby Aces Cycling Club and the 18-hole Tenby Golf Course that provides links golf by the coast.
Tenby experiences a maritime climate with cool summers, mild winters and often high winds. Due to its coastal southwest position, it is one of the sunnier locations in Wales.

It's known as Castle Hill and the Museum is built over the Castle but the Keep at 41 and 44 minutes is intriguing inside as I am one of the few with keys to it.
Ooh that does sound interesting!
Thanks for your lovely video of my local walks. At 41 and 44 minutes I have the keys to the Keep which could be spliced in nicely. Luckily you didn't find my special areas with the best views that the majority of the public never find. KEEP them coming as I am selling my house and will be revisiting your videos for when I cannot get back to Tenby.
Thanks so much for watching and leaving a lovely comment! Glad you enjoyed it. We hope to film some more videos when we can get back to Tenby :)

Thank you for this gorgeous video ! The best Tenby video I've seen !!😍😻👍👍I 'm currently planning a trip to Wales w/ mom for the near future ! Tenby & Saunder'sfoot are must for me to visit ! My late soulmate Jon Lee ( Feeder's drummer )wanted me to be on Saunder'sfoot beach & the waterfall near there w/ him ! I broke my childhood promise . One of my biggest regrets ! He used to go to both beaches a lot w/ his dad ,sometimes w/ his brother .I've been watching a lot of videos of Wales for the last two years ! But this one & one more by some another man are the bests so far ! And one Welsh lady did w/ her drone ! So ,those three ! But ,yours showed a lot more of the town & the beach & park right by the beach ,etc.! 1st ,I thought to myself it was too long ( before started watching ) & hesitated,glad that I watched ,it flew by !!! GOSH ! I want more ! Lol.The colours of the sky & water were AMAZING !!! Great job !!👍Good to see many were wearing masks ,too!! 💜💜💜🥁🐉🎵🎤🎶🏴💖💕💞

How have I found this video didnt think tenby was that popular..
I must visit, looks lovely.
Thanks for watching. Yes Tenby is lovely you should definitely visit.
How come your camera doesn't shake at all? Did you use gimbal?
thanks for the great video, i went there for my wedding anniversary last year 😊
Thanks very much for watching and commenting. Yes I used a gimbal to keep it steady. Glad you enjoyed it. Tenby is lovely 😊💕
We went to Tenby every year for 10 years, but stopped going after they started charging for toilets. Just irritates those of us at an age where you never give up an opportunity to nip to the loo.
really nice walk in Wales, l35
Thank you very much my friend 😊💕
Would love to be able to visit it
Thanks for watching
