"NASH, a parish partly in the hundred of CASTLEMARTIN, and partly in that of NARBERTH, county of PEMBROKE, SOUTH WALES, 2 miles (N.E.) from Pembroke, containing 133 inhabitants. This parish, which is situated in the southern part of the county, and near a small inlet from Milford Haven, comprises but a moderate portion of land, which is enclosed and in a good state of cultivation. The surrounding scenery, though not distinguished by any striking peculiarity of feature, is generally pleasing; and the adjacent country affords some interesting objects, and some views which are not destitute of beauty. The great turnpike road leading from Narberth to Pembroke passes through the southern part of the parish. The living is a rectory, with Upton annexed, in the archdeaconry and diocese of St.David's, rated in the king's books at £6. 12. 8 1/2., and in the patronage of the Rev. William Evans. The church is a very ancient structure, remarkable for the rude simplicity of its architecture, and is said to have been erected by one of the earliest Norman proprietors of Upton castle. The average annual expenditure for the support of the poor is £20. 2." [From A Topographical Dictionary of Wales (S. Lewis, 1833).]
