Scheduled Monuments in Pembrokeshire Scheduled Monuments in Pembrokeshire Pembrokeshire is the fifth-largest county in Wales, but has more Ancient Monuments (526) than any except Powys. This gives it an extremely high density of monuments, with 33.4 per 100km2. (Only the tiny County Boroughs of Newport and Merthyr Tydfil have a higher density).
