Sardis (also known as Sardis Cross) is a small village in the community and parish of Burton, Pembrokeshire, Wales 1 mile (2 km) east of Rosemarket.

Worship[edit]

Sardis Baptist Chapel was built in 1822. The minister for Pembroke Dock, quoted in an 1851 religious census, described the congregation as scattered, with the weather sometimes greatly affecting attendance.^[1]

Armed robbery[edit]

An armed robbery in the village helped lead to the apprehension and eventual conviction of serial killer John Cooper for murders committed in the 1980s.^[2]
