The ancient Town of Whitland sits in a pleasant part of West Wales, in the Valley of the River Taf. It sits on the Borders of the old Counties of Pembrokeshire and Carmarthenshire, and is famous for being the meeting place of the first 'Welsh Assembly', led by Hywell Dda. The Town is mentioned in the 'Mabinogion' due to it's historic Cistercian Abbey, and the link to Hywel Dda. Nearby is the picturesque village of Lampeter Velfrey, whose Parish overlaps Whitland, with many of the men listed on both War Memorials. This book commemorates the memory of the men of Whitland and Lampeter Velfrey who fought and died in World War One and World War Two, and contains photos of many of the men, and of their last resting places.
