Wisemans Bridge is a small hamlet and holiday resort on the Pembrokeshire Coast Path between Amroth and Saundersfoot in Pembrokeshire, Wales. It is part of the Community of Amroth.[1] In 1943, Winston Churchill visited the area as the allies practised for the D Day landings.[2]
The footpath linking it and Coppet Hall beach was once a railway track used to transport coal to Saundersfoot Harbour.[3][4]
