Parish Church, Clarbeston

Dedicated to St Martin of Tours. The name Clarbeston can be explained in an early (1230) reference to it: "ecclesia Sti. Martini de villa Clarenbaldi"; Clarenbald was a Flemish name, and the dedication to the military saint indicates that he was more a fighter than a farmer. The Welsh name of the parish, Treglarbes, is simply a translation of the English. Clarbeston is south of the Landsker, which here follows the Afon Syfni.
