Boulston Manor
Boulston Manor is situated about 3 miles from Haverfordwest and it is situated in mid Pembrokeshire, known as Little England beyond Wales. The approach from the town is a pretty route alongside the estuary, which becomes more wooded, as the Manor gets nearer. The drive is lined with Rhododendrons, until it opens up in front of the Manor with its parkland and estuary beyond.

The Boulston Manor Estate has a significant historical background to the area. It was acquired in the 15th Century by the Picton branch of the once all-powerful Wogan family and remained in the family until the late 18th Century, when the Acklands became Lords of the Manor.

The current Manor house looks down across gently sloping parkland onto the Cleddau Estuary, which was once a much-frequented highway. The ruins of Boulston Church, once a private mausoleum of the Wogan family, lie on the river’s edge and are obscured by trees and bushes, which have grown over and into the ruins. In and around the church are fragments of dressed stones and broken memorial tablets testifying to the long departed glories of the Wogan family. There is one slab, which is richly carved with the crest and coat of arms of the Wogan’s. A tiny child effigy has been removed for the safe keeping to a nearby Uzmaston Church. The Church was rebuilt by Robert Innes Ackland in 1843, but since then has gone into decay. The ruin of Boulston Church and the immediate land it stands on is owned by the Welsh Church Commissioners.

Downstream from the Church are the ruins of Old Boulston Manor (Old Hall). Although not much of the great building is left it is still possible to make out the 6ft thick walls and here and there ragged openings which lead down into the dark cellar of the original medieval hall. In the 16th Century two multi-storey towers were added at either end of the hall and a series of walled courtyards and water gardens were built by Robert Innes Ackland in 1843, but since then it has gone to decay.
