The route from Llawhaden to St Davids is an ancient highway. It follows the Landsker: the
divide between Cymro-Norman and Welsh Pembrokeshire. Roman work to improve the route west of Carmarthen has been traced as far as Wiston. During the Middle Ages, pilgrims would have followed this ancient way as they journeyed to the shrine at St Davids Cathedral, guided by ancient waymarkers and resting at hospices along the way.
