"LLANREITHAN (LLAN-RHIDIAN), a parish in the hundred of DEWISLAND, county of PEMBROKE, SOUTH WALES, 4 miles (N. E. by E.) from Solva, containing 141 inhabitants. This parish, which derives its name from the dedication of its church, is pleasantly situated in the north-western part of the county, and comprises some fertile tracts of land, which are enclosed and in a good state of cultivation. The surrounding scenery, though in general pleasing, is not distinguished by any peculiarity from that which prevails generally in this part of the principality. The living is a perpetual curacy, in the archdeaconry and diocese of St. David's, endowed with £800 royal bounty, and £200 parliamentary grant, and in the patronage of the Subchanter and Minor Chapter of the cathedral church of St. David's, to whom the tithes of the parish are appropriated. The average annual expenditure for the support of the poor is £64. 15." [From A Topographical Dictionary of Wales (S. Lewis, 1833).]
