This parish, the village of which is pleasantly situated on an eminence in the southern part of the county, comprises a considerable portion of enclosed and cultivated land, and a small tract of open downs, affording good pasturage for sheep and young cattle. Limestone is found in it, and some quarries have been opened, in the working of which a portion of the inhabitants are employed. The village is neatly built and of prepossessing appearance. The living is a discharged vicarage, in the archdeaconry and diocese of St. David's, rated in the king's books at £3. 17. 11. and in the patronage of the Subchanter and Minor Chapter of St. David's. The church, dedicated to St. Deiniol, is an ancient building, with a very lofty tower, and, from its elevated situation, is an interesting and conspicuous object from all parts of the surrounding country. There is a place of worship for Welsh Calvinistic Methodists. Poor children of this parish are eligible for gratuitous instruction in the schools founded by Lady Cawdor, in the adjoining parishes of Warren and Stackpool Elidur. The average annual expenditure for the maintenance of the poor amounts to £133. 2." [From A Topographical Dictionary of Wales (S. Lewis, 1833).]
