Trefin
Trefin is a village in the Welsh-speaking area of Pembrokeshire, south-west Wales. It is sometimes given the anglicised spelling Trevine, particularly on older maps, although the official name is now ''Trefin'' in both English and Welsh. Trefin has derived its name from the Welsh name 'Trefaen' which translated to English means 'village on the rock outcrop'. The rock outcrop can be seen in many places around Trefin, especially its centre.
==History==
Although small, Trefin is an historical village. It is inextricably linked to the Archdruid Crwys, who was born in Craig Cefn Parc, Glamorganshire, and the historic mill at Aberfelin is the subject of his most famous work, the poem 'Melin Trefin', which is one of the most famous poems in the Welsh language.〔(BBC NEWS | UK | Wales | South West Wales | Cerys names baby after home )〕 The mill was in use for around 500 years and was used by the villagers of Trefin and surrounding areas. Wheat was milled to produce flour for bread baking and barley was ground into winter feed for livestock. By the 1900s cheap grain was being imported from overseas and milled in larger mills in towns and cities. Trefin Mill eventually closed in 1918. The mill building still stands but with no roof. The mill stones still remain.〔(Ruins of Trefin Mill/Melin Trefin:: OS grid SM8332 :: Geograph Britain and Ireland - photograph every grid square! )〕
