51°42′58″N 5°02′31″W / 51.716°N 5.042°W / 51.716; -5.042 Havens Head Retail Park is a retail park located in Milford Haven, Wales.

Havens Head Retail Park

Opened in 1998, it is situated centrally between Milford town and Hakin in Hubberston Pill,[1] adjacent to the railway station. It occupies a previously industrial area, the site of a former Jewson branch. There are nine individual business units, offering 75,000 square feet (7,000 m2) of retail space.[2] A car park of 369 spaces is attached.[3]

Its arrival was heralded as an opportunity for Milford Haven to acquire a higher retail profile in Pembrokeshire.[4] The park has attracted a certain amount of controversy, with claims that it has weakened the traditional retail focus on Charles Street and the traditional centre of town.
