A family business.
I am the lady at the door with my husband Don Weston. The date is about 1959 because that is the year we had electricity in the village and started to sell ice cream. Hence the Walls sign. My parents Mr and Mrs Caesar Evans started the tearooms here in 1922 and after my mother died in 1952 my husband and I ran this little business together very happily for fifty two years until his sudden death three years ago. But I have managed to keep the business going with the help of many good friends. I am now nearly eighty five and affectionately known by many customers as Auntie Vi.

'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.

Extracts From Cwmfelin Boeth & Dyfed books
A panormaic view of the town and castle showing how the latter dominated the scene even in 1955. Note the scaffolding around the tower.
An extract from from"Haverfordwest Town and City Memories".
An evocative view from the north-east of the part of the town immediately below the castle and the impressive castle and
prison itself. The watch-tower in the roof of the new prison was built so the guards could observe all activity in the exercise
yards. These buildings in the shadow of the castle walls were the site of the Marychurch Foundry, the town’s biggest employer
until its closure in the mid-1930s.
An extract from from"Haverfordwest Town and City Memories".
A superb view looking up the Western Cleddau into Haverfordwest with the castle in the center and the tower of St Thomas a Becket on the hill overlooking it. Note the steamer in the forefront of the picture. The priory ruins can just be seen across the river and below St Thomas`.

A veritable oasis of calm after the hustle and bustle of Haverfordwest town center.
An extract from from"Haverfordwest Town and City Memories".
A change in sea level and erosion have combined to produce a fascinating effect off this beach, as documented by Giraldus
Cambrensis: ‘We then passed over Niwegal sands, at which place (during the winter that King Henry II spent in Ireland),
as well as in almost all other western ports, a very remarkable circumstance occurred.
