The redevelopment of the historic and prominent South Quay site, next to Pembroke Castle. Works are currently planned as two phases. Together, the developments will provide a diverse and sustainable mix of new uses in the town.      

The first phase will celebrate the town’s legacy as the birthplace of the Tudor dynasty, creating a Henry Tudor visitor centre, library and information centre, café and landscaped gardens. The second phase, ‘the Pembroke Hwb’, involves the completion of South Quay’s regeneration scheme, centring on numbers 7 and 8 Northgate Street. It will provide an integrated community hub over three storeys, including a space for day opportunities and learning and skills development to support independent living for people of all ages and provides supported employment for people with disabilities. 

Environmental enhancements include the restoration of the buildings, a new sunken garden and improvements to the parking area at South Quay, along with improved access between the Henry Tudor visitor centre and the waterfront.
