Tenby, Pembrokeshire

Mathematical Gazetteer of the British Isles


Tenby, in south west Wales, is the birthplace of Robert Recorde (c1510-1558). There is a sculptural portrait monument of 1910 in the church there, based on the presumed portrait in Cambridge [1]. (Alun Morris has kindly loaned me a photograph of this.)
