Parish Church, Clarbeston Dedicated to St Martin of Tours. The name Clarbeston can be explained in an early (1230) reference to it: "ecclesia Sti. Martini de villa Clarenbaldi"; Clarenbald was a Flemish name, and the dedication to the military saint indicates that he was more a fighter than a farmer. The Welsh name of the parish, Treglarbes, is simply a translation of the English. Clarbeston is south of the Landsker, which here follows the Afon Syfni.

Porch: Clarbeston parish church The base of the tower is fenced off due to falling masonry, and this temporary structure protects those using the only door. The church was re-built on the ancient site in 1841, and is now not in good shape.

Meadow in the Syfni valley, Clarbeston Syfni is the local pronunciation of the river name, and is the spelling in some, but not all, OS maps. More literary variants are Syfynwy, Syfynfi, Syfnau. The name is derived from the same Celtic name (Sumina) as the Somme in France. The river for some distance marks the traditional Landsker or language boundary, English on this side and Welsh on the other. It also marked the boundary in the Hundred of Dungleddy between the Marcher barons' land to the south and west and the bishop's lands to the north and east.
