The village hosts an exciting selection of shops and eateries, and homes an ancient church called 'St. Mary' remarked as one of the earliest forms of architecture in South Wales. Reflecting a wealth of history, Portskewett boasts Roman remains and the Eastern part of the village shows evidence of a chambered tomb, which dates back to the stone ages. The name 'Portskewett' is an old welsh name which now reads 'the harbour below the wood'.
