A little known section of Tenby's town walls has recently been repaired and consolidated.

The mediaeval section - located behind the new 'Coburg' flats at the top of Frog Street - is part of the walls that the general public does not usually get to see as it is in a private garden.

Work was carried out by specialist contractors Tree and Son, with funding from Pembrokeshire County Council and Cadw.

The earliest parts of the walls in this area date back to the 12th century, with alterations to the defences carried out in the mid-15th century by Jasper Tudor, Earl of Pembroke, who added a stone walkway.

This walkway was provided along the entire north-south length of Tenby's western wall by a series of stone piers and arches constructed against the earlier wall constructions and cleverly retained access to the arrow slits at the lower level along its length.

Tenby town walls are a designated Ancient Monument and each year sections of the wall are cleaned of ivy and valerian, while the stonework is re-pointed using lime mortar.
