Merlin's Bridge is a small village and suburb on the western edge of Haverfordwest in Pembrokeshire, Wales. It sits near the banks of the Western Cleddau and functions largely as a residential area with local shops, a primary school and community facilities, while being within easy reach of the Pembrokeshire coast and countryside.
The name evokes Arthurian legend but the historic link is uncertain; in practice the place has a practical, community‑centred feel with sports clubs, village events and strong ties to the nearby county town for jobs and services. Tourism to the coast and the surrounding rural economy shape local life, while some older cottages and post‑war housing reflect its gradual growth from a riverside hamlet into a commuter suburb.
