In 1868, the parish of Llansadwrnen contained the following places:
"LLANSADWRNEN, (or Llansadwrn), a parish in the hundred of Derllys, county Carmarthen, 1 mile N.W. of Laugharne, its post town, and 4 S. of St. Clears. It is situated near the river Taff. Limestone is quarried for building purposes, and for burning into lime. The village is small. The living is a rectory annexed to the vicarage* of Laugharne, in the diocese of St. David's. The church is dedicated to St. Sadwrn. Judge Powell, before whom the seven bishops were tried, had a seat here called Broadway. It is now a ruin.
