The Landsker Line (Welsh: Ffin ieithyddol Sir Benfro) is a term used for the language border in Wales between the largely Welsh-speaking and largely English-speaking areas in Pembrokeshire and Carmarthenshire. The English-speaking areas, south of the Landsker line and sometimes known as Little England beyond Wales, are notable for having been English linguistically for many centuries despite being far from the England–Wales border.
