Dyfed memories
A Seaside Holiday by Manorbier Beach
Although this view of Manorbier Castle dates from 1890 it is the only photo in the Francis Frith collection which shows the nearby beach. I am happy to record our family's day on the beach here and it is unchanged more than 120 years later!
My granddaughters Anna and Connie helped me to build a sandcastle and watched the incoming tide wash it away. Anna climbed in and out of the rockpools with Grandma - my wife Elizabeth - and netted two shrimps. The sun shone and we had a lovely time paddling in the waves.
The whole happy experience was rounded off with lunch in the sheltered and sunny garden of the beach cafe. A memory to be recalled with pleasure in years to come!
Castle Quay, Pembroke
The white dust on the water in the Pembroke photgraphs is flour from the Town Watermill. After a minor fire this lovely building was wickedly destroyed by the Council. It would be a major attraction today.
Pembroke
My grandad came from Pembroke, when my dad was a boy he used to visit there. He said he used to have to dress up tidy when going to visit family there. His name was William Rowland Hill. He said one of his relatives done a stained glass window in a little church in Pembroke Dock but I can't remember where it was.
Bath House
I would like a photo of the old Bath House at Neyland. If anyone has any old pictures which I could have copies from I would be grateful. garry.thomas@talk21.com Garry Thomas
Happy Holidays
My husband, myself and 2 daughters have spent many happy holidays camping in Penally in the 1970s and early 1980s. We camped in a field near the pub owned by a farming family, the sun always shone, we spent hours on the beautiful beach, kids and dogs playing happily, we always visited Lydstep, Saundersfoot, Bosherton lily ponds, the chapel at St. Govans, St. Davids Bay, Pendine sands. In the evenings we used to walk into Tenby on the beach and eat in the Pam Pam Restaurant and visit the ice cream parlour on Frog St. owned by the Fecci family. There was a chap from Burnley, our home town, who owned the Kilgetty Arms. I now breed and show Irish Setters (we always took them on holiday with us) and my Kennel Club affix is Pennally......Sue Morgan
Happy Childhood Holidays
When I was a child, my grandparents had a static caravan on the 'Zealand' caravan park in Saundersfoot (now part of Scar Farm). We stayed there every school holiday and I have many lovely memories; many include a bag of chips and the steep walk up the hill beside the Hean Castle Pub. Saundersfoot feels like home to me and I hope to live there one day. It's lovely to see how it looked so many years ago.
'The Annie'.
The owner was my grandfather George Rowe. My father, his son, was born in Tenby in 1905 and died in late 1999 aged 93 years. You might be interested to learn that the boat (M26) in the middle of your picture was called ''The Annie'' and was wrecked near Goscar Rock in a severe storm. My grandfather (the skipper) was found half drowned by my grandmother on the beach. I recollect from accounts given by my father that the rudder broke in the storm and there was no way to control the ship. It ran aground on the only rock on the north beach between Goscar and the harbour! My grandfather was also a member of the lifeboat crew. I am not sure which lifeboat but on one occasion it was swept down to Swansea and the crew returned three days later but not before the families had assumed they had been lost. I think they had gone to help the Hardwick lightship.
