Sir,

The recent flurry of TV films and programmes about 'The Tudors' and particularly 'Anne Boleyn' reminded of a moment in my very distant youth. We were travelling by car to Carmarthen and as we descended the hill out of Kilgetty my mother pointed to a tree-lined ridge (Kilgetty Wood?) to our left and said that the pathway along the ridge was known as 'Anne Boleyn's Walk'.

I assumed that she was alluding to the second wife of Henry VIII, although it could equally be a reference to the wife/daughter of some local gentry of a different era.

However, Anne Boleyn was created Marquess of Pembroke in 1532, so it is feasible that she may at one time have visited her domain and the original assumption was correct.

I wondered if any reader has ever heard of this historical reference or could add any further information.
