From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Wiston (Welsh: Cas-Wis) is a village in Pembrokeshire, Wales, in the United Kingdom. It was once a marcher borough. Owen, in 1603, described it as one of nine Pembrokeshire "boroughs in decay"[1]. It continued as a constituent parliamentary borough until the end of the 19th century.

It is overlooked by Wiston Castle.
