The small rural parish of Brawdy sits in north‑west Pembrokeshire, Wales, among rolling farmland, hedgerows and narrow lanes not far from the coast and within easy reach of St Davids and Haverfordwest. The landscape is typical Pembrokeshire countryside - patchwork fields, pockets of species‑rich grassland and scrub that support farmland birds and other wildlife.
What marks Brawdy out is the former military airfield, RAF Brawdy, which dominated local life through much of the 20th century and left a visible imprint on the economy and community; since its closure parts of the site have been repurposed and aviation relics remain. Today the parish is largely agricultural with scattered hamlets and traditional stone buildings, while its proximity to the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park and coastal attractions brings a modest tourist trade that complements local farming life.
