NASH, a parish, in the hundred of CASTLEMARTIN, union of PEMBROKE and county of PEMBROKE, SOUTH WALES, 2 miles (N. E.)
from Pembroke; containing 140 inhabitants. This parish, which is situated in the southern part of the county, and near a
small inlet from Milford Haven, comprises a moderate portion of land, in a good state of cultivation. The surrounding
scenery, though not distinguished by any striking peculiarity of feature, is generally pleasing; and the adjacent country
affords some interesting objects, and some views which are not destitute of beauty. The great turnpike-road leading from
Narberth to Pembroke passes through the southern part of the parish, of which the rateable annual value is returned at
£580. 15. The living is a rectory, with Upton annexed, rated in the king's books at £6. 12. 8i.; present net income, £130,
with a glebe- house; patron, Rev. William Evans: the tithes have been commuted for a rent-charge of £80; and there is a
glebe of about 261 acres, valued at £55 per annum. The church is a very ancient structure, remarkable for the rude
simplicity of its architecture, and is said to have been erected by one of the earliest Norman proprietors of Upton
Castle.
