Prendergast, Pembrokeshire history
Parish
Prendergast (Prendergest) appears on a 1578 parish map of Pembrokeshire. The parish was originally placed in the ancient Hundred of Dungleddy by the Laws in Wales Acts 1535-1542. In 1872, the parish extended to 1,104 acres (447 ha) and in the 150 years between 1801 and 1951 the population almost doubled.
Parish church
The parish church of St David is a Grade II listed building, and has many memorials to distinguished local people. It was described in 1833 as “an ancient and venerable structure, in the early style of English architecture, and in good repair” It was rebuilt in the late 19th century but retains its late-mediaeval tower.
Chapel
Welsh-speaking Baptist Chapel was established in 1858 to serve north Pembrokeshire people settling in Haverfordwest. Welsh-only services ceased in 1880, and the chapel was enlarged in 1888–91.
Prendergast Mill
About 1786, the 3-storey cotton mill was the only one in south Wales, or at least the largest, with 1,512 spindles. It was converted to a paper mill in 1816, establishing the paper-making industry in Haverfordwest. In ruins by the 20th century, it was partially demolished in 1986.
Rebecca riots
About 24 men destroyed the tollgate on the Fishguard road in Pembrokeshire in April 1843. Two men were convicted of unlawful assembly in the spring of 1844, and sentenced to 12 months’ imprisonment each.
