More about this scene
Aberystwyth became a popular resort for the well-to-do, who came here to bathe and socialise from the late 18th century. Once the railway arrived in 1864, many more visitors came; a variety of activities was arranged for them, including bathing from the bathing machines in the middle of the picture, taking trips around the bay in the rowing or sailing boats, and being entertained at the top of Constitution Hill (in the background).
