Councillors in Tenby are looking to members of the public to seek suggestions on ways of enhancing the town’s Five Arches in 2021 as an historic focal point and gateway into the resort.

At a recent remote meeting of Tenby Town Council, Clr. Mike Evans told his fellow members that he felt that the town walls were a tremendous asset to the town but that more could be done to enhance the Five Arches as an ‘historic gateway’ into the Walled Town.

He also suggested that the town council could access the Enhancing Pembrokeshire Fund grants to carry out any project, before formally proposing that the town council make the Five Arches the designated gateway to the walled town of Tenby and look to establish a working group to look at how to improve it.

“TTC have the money in our budget, all we needed was the vision of councillors to create a beautiful wish list,” commented Clr. Evans.

At the town council’s first remote meeting of 2021 on Tuesday night, members agreed to look at holding an open Zoom meeting with members of the public to get views and ideas as to how they can enhance the Five Arches as one of the main gateways into the walled town.
