# Summerhill, Pembrokeshire

Summerhill is a small settlement 1 mile (1.6 km) northwest of Amroth, in Pembrokeshire, Wales, in Amroth parish and community.

## History

Summerhill was originally where farmers would graze their sheep in the summer, hence the name, but now it is a village of several houses and a corner shop. It is not marked on a pre-1850 map of Amroth parish. A Primitive Methodist chapel was established in 1879; chapel records, including baptisms, Sunday school papers and minutes are held by Pembrokeshire Records Office. By the 1990s the chapel had been converted to a residential property.

## Governance

Summerhill comes under the governance of Amroth Community Council.

## Amenities
