More about this scene
This view from the end of the stone pier shows the four-storey Custom House surrounded by rowing boats, which were used by both local fishermen and holidaymakers. Fishing was an important local industry, particularly during the 18th century when vast shoals of herring came in the autumn. New Quay now serves a few local fishing boats and many leisure boat owners; a regatta is held annually, which dates back to 1868.
