Millennium Coastal Park

The Millennium Coastal Path is a 13 miles (21 km) pedestrian walkway and cycleway along the south coast of Carmarthenshire, providing a link between Llanelli and Pembrey Country Park. The cycleway forms a section of both the Celtic Trail cycle route (part of NCN 47) and the National Cycle Network NCN 4. The Millennium Coastal Path runs through the Millennium Coastal Park.

The Millennium Coastal Path may refer specifically to the 7 miles (11 km) cycle and walking path from The Llanelli Discovery Centre to Burry Port and Pembury Forest, and more generally to the 10 miles (16 km) section of the Wales Coast Path through the park from Bynea Gateway to Burry Port.On the evening of Monday 19 February 2007, a high tide combined with a high storm swell caused severe damage to a section of the path and cycle route near Burry Port. A 440 yards section was damaged with complete loss of a 160 yards section.

The first recorded match on the ground was in 1861, when Carmarthenshire played Glamorganshire.A venue of Llanelli Cricket Club since the 1870s, Stradey Park Rugby Stadium, which adjoins the cricket ground was selected as part of the 1887 Home Nations Championship, with the opening home match for Wales being against England. The game was arranged for the 8 January and a temporary stand was erected to allow a seating area so the club could charge higher ticket prices; but on the day the English team refused to play on the ground as the pitch was frozen. The cricket ground being in better condition was pulled into action, so the match was moved there along with the entire crowd of 8,000, many members of which were extremely unhappy as they lost their seating area.
