From the Wikipedia article

Abercych (or Abercuch, Welsh pronunciation: [ɑbərkiːx]) is a small village in the community of Manordeifi, northeast Pembrokeshire in South West Wales, located approximately 1⁄3 mile (0.54 km) from the tripoint of the counties of Pembrokeshire, Carmarthenshire and Ceredigion. The village developed from a number of small settlements along the west bank of Afon Cych, which flows into the River Teifi nearby, giving the village its name, meaning "mouth of the Cych". The village has two pubs, one of which brews its own beer, two chapels and a care farm.

Background

History

Abercych is an ancient settlement, the Welsh placename of which means 'the mouth of the Afon Cych', referring to where the Cych joins the River Teifi. The earliest recorded settlement was a forge, now no longer in existence. The linear nature of the present village arose from the joining up of several discrete settlements: Pont Hercws, Forge Cych, Penrhiw, Pont Treseli and Abercych itself. There were about 30 houses in the 1840s.
