More about this scene
Here we see the Black Rock, Black Rock Quarry and Black Rock Cottage, and behind is the bridge over the railway. Originally there was a junction here with a line running to the original Tenby Station, now Tenby Lower Yard; from that line a short spur served the quarry and lime kilns. The quarry ceased to be worked in 1911.

From that time, I was riased and loved at the Bush Inn, St George St. Does that make me a Tenby Man or a man of Tenby? I was so lucky to have as a granddad, Wiffy Vaulk. Tenby remains my home. The five arches are so important to the town as they welcome visitors and also to us Tenby people they signify that when you pass under those walls you are home. Tenby our 'home'.
I was born in the Flat above Lloyds Bank, Tudor Square, Tenby, Feb 1950 and recall being raised there. I recall the amazing views of the changing colours of the harbour and recall the church bells and chimes of the steeple clock.
