History
Parish
The parish is small, just Script error: No such module "convert".,[4] and rural.[5] There were 109 inhabitants in the 1830s.[1] The population in 1870 was 106, in 24 houses. In 1961, the population was 69.[4] The parish subsequently came under the Church in Wales parish of Narberth and Tenby.[6]
Coal was mined in the parish in the early 20th century and in 1915 the Saundersfoot Railway was extended to Reynalton. Reynalton Colliery closed in 1921.[7]
Parish church
The parish church of St James was described by Samuel Lewis in 1833 as "a small ancient edifice, with a low tower, and in a very dilapidated condition".[1] It has mediaeval origins and retains its original tower; the building was restored in the 19th century and is now a Grade II listed building.[8][9]
Internet access
In December 2008, Reynalton was one of six broadband "not-spots" in Wales – communities without high-speed Internet access; the Welsh Assembly Government in conjunction with BT confirmed that coverage in these areas would soon be upgraded to bring them into line with the rest of the UK.[10] In 2010, Reynalton became broadband enabled.[11]
