Tegryn Village Pembrokeshire Wales
Description edit
Excerpted from the website description:
- Tegryn is a small village, high in the Preseli hills in Pembrokeshire West Wales. The village is built on the upper slopes of Frenni Fawr {the 3rd highest peak in the range , as a result of which we have magnificent views in all directions. On the down-side however, there is nothing to protect us from the gales blowing inland from the Irish sea {when I first moved here I was shocked to see rain, snow, and hail falling sideways - but now it seems quite normal !. Tegryn is also notorious for mist. Having said all that, I have to say that on a clear and bright summer day our village and its surrounding area is one of the most beautiful places that I have ever seen. See for yourself on our picture page. Being a small rural community, we are lucky to have a Pub, Post Office, two Garages, Chapel and a newly formed area Primary School in the village. Our bus service consists of one trip per week to and from Cardigan, and one per month to and from Carmarthen, so anyone without a car or motorbike is faced with a four-mile walk {all downhill} to the nearest bus route. This is no great problem for a reasonably fit person, BUT, the return trip {heavily laden with shopping} is, of course, all UPHILL. Fortunately, there is a great sense of community here and it is usually fairly easy to find someone willing to provide transport. If you want to find us on a map, follow the A478 road from Cardigan to Crymych, then follow the first turn to the left and then take the first turn on the right. This brings you to a T-junction where a right turn leads into Tegryn. Now that may seem easy at the first glance, but if you are a town dweller and are thinking of visiting us, beware - we have road hazards here that you may never have encountered before ! Here are some examples :- a herd of cattle on the way to pasture or milking; two farmers {or their wives} who, going in opposite directions, have stopped their cars side by side in the middle of the road while they have a long conversation; farm machinery on the way from one field to another. The most common hazard, though, is sheep - no matter how well the farmers maintain their fences, they still manage to escape and appear to be convinced that the roadside grass is much tastier than the grass in their home field
