1. Title: A Blast from the Past: The Lower Quay, Fishguard, Pembrokeshire, Wales (1920s) 2.. Step back in time with this image of The Lower Quay in Fishguard, Pembrokeshire, Wales, dating back to the 1920s. This photograph, captured by an unknown artist, offers a glimpse into the rich history of this picturesque coastal town. The Lower Quay, located near Goodwick, has long been a hub of activity for the local community and visitors alike. In the 1920s, the quay was a bustling center for fishing, trade, and transportation. The traditional boats moored along the quay, their sails rolled up, await the next voyage out to sea. The rugged cliffs and the vast expanse of the Irish Sea serve as a dramatic backdrop to the scene. The quay's timber buildings, with their weathered exteriors, stand strong against the elements, reflecting the resilience and determination of the people who call this place home. The quay's history can be traced back to the 13th century, making it an essential part of Fishguard's heritage. Over the centuries, it has played a vital role in the town's development, from its use as a defensive fortification during medieval times to its role as a crucial port during the Maritime War of 1797. Today, The Lower Quay remains a popular tourist destination, attracting visitors from around the world who come to explore its history, enjoy the breathtaking views, and experience the unique charm of Fishguard and Goodwick. This photograph serves as a testament to the enduring spirit of this remarkable place and the people who have shaped its story.
