Tenby should follow the example set by Pembroke in looking after its town walls, a local councillor said this week.

Speaking at Tuesday night’s meeting of the town council, Clr. Mrs. Tish Rossiter said that she and the Mayor, Clr. Mrs. Sue Lane, had recently attended the ‘Armed Forces Day’ event in the grounds of Pembroke Castle.

Councillors have recently called for Tenby’s historic walls to be looked after better, as there had been longstanding issues with weeds growing out of the landmark.

“Looking around the castle in Pembroke seems to be run by a trust, and there was not a weed in sight! It makes our town walls look shabby. Is a trust maybe the way we need to go with our own walls?” she asked her colleagues.
