"LLANDILO (LLAN-DEILO), a parish in the. hundred of KEMMES, county of PEMBROKE, SOUTH WALES, 11 miles (N.) from Narberth, containing 117 inhabitants. This parish, which is not of very great extent, is pleasantly situated in the eastern part of the county, bordering on Carmarthenshire. It derives its name from the dedication of its church to St.Teilo, one of the most eminent saints of British antiquity, who flourished in the latter part of the fifth, and the beginning of the sixth, century. The surface is boldly undulated, and in some parts rises into abrupt eminences, among which are some of the highest summits of the Percelly range of mountains. The lands are but partially enclosed and cultivated; and the soil is various, being in some parts fertile, and in others thin and poor. Slate of good quality is found in abundance within the parish: some quarries of it are worked with advantage, the produce consisting of roofing slates, which are in high estimation. The living is a perpetual curacy, annexed to that of Llangolman, in the archdeaconry and diocese of St. David's, and endowed with £800 royal bounty. There is a place of worship for Independents. The average annual expenditure for the support of the poor is £17. 10." [From A Topographical Dictionary of Wales (S. Lewis, 1833).]
