The Bristol Trader, Haverfordwest

Grade II listed building which dates back to the 1700s.  The Bristol Trader still stands on the quayside at Haverfordwest and a reminder of its former trading days.  Mary Llewhellin ran the Trader from the early 1830s to 1870 who also ran a successful business as a coal merchant.  She finally retired in 1871 but remained on the premises as a lodger until her death a year later aged ninety.  The local press reported she had been ‘for 57 years landlady at the Bristol Trader’.  William Skinner became the new landlord and also became a well known dog-breeder.

In the late 1950s Mrs Doris Manson ran the Trader and became the first pub in town to have carpet on the floor rather than the customary sawdust!

Much refurbished in the new millennium with the restaurant being extended in 2004

A Casque Marque accredited pub and a member of the Good Beer Guide.
