Haroldston St. Issell's

Haroldston St Issells is a parish in Pembrokeshire, Wales, on the upper reaches of the River Cleddau, 1 mile (1.6 km) southeast of Haverfordwest. Its area is 1,104 acres (447 ha); Haroldston Manor, which is now a ruin, is the old seat of the Harrolds and the Perrots, in particular Sir John Perrot,[1] who is thought to be the illegitimate son of Henry VIII. Upper and Lower Haroldston are two ancient farmhouses that were probably part of the Haroldston estate. Lower Haroldston is still a working farm, whilst Upper Haroldston is a domestic dwelling.
