The ward was created following a boundary review which took place in 2019. The review noted the existing Pembroke Monkton and Pembroke St Mary South both having a lower number of electors than the county average. As a result, it was recommended to combine the two and transfer part of the neighbouring Pembroke St Michael into the merged ward to increase the number of electors.[1] The Welsh Government accepted the changes and they took effect in 2021.[2]
