Rudbaxton and Spittal lie just to the west of the county town of Haverfordwest in rural Pembrokeshire, Wales. The ward covers a patchwork of rolling farmland, hedgerows and small woodlands, with lanes linking scattered farms and villages; it’s a short drive from the coast and popular locally for walking and wildlife watching.
The area has a long rural history, with place‑names and older parish buildings reflecting medieval origins - 'Spittal' itself usually marks the site of a historic hospice - and community life still centres on village halls, churches and the occasional country pub. Economically it remains largely agricultural while many residents commute into Haverfordwest or nearby towns for work, and local councillors tend to focus on balancing modest development with preserving the landscape and village character.
