Tiers Cross, in the west of Pembrokeshire, is situated 4 miles south of Haverfordwest and the same distance north of Milford Haven. Neighbouring settlements include Walwyns Castle, 2 miles to the north west and Johnson to the east. The village is linear in shape, made up of a mix of traditional houses like the Manse adjoining the United Reformed Church, individual properties and homes on estates. The surrounding area is dotted with large farms in fertile countryside. Dramatic dips and water filled gullies are the legacy of the quarrying industry, still operating at Bolton Quarries, north of Tiers Cross.
