Summary Description

Fishguard is an Irish packet port perhaps more famous as the surrender point for the last invasion of Britain and the memorial to Jemima Nicholas the lady who is claimed to have led a party of Welsh women, dressed in their traditional costume and so being seen by the French as redcoats. The lower harbour was the setting for much of the film ‘Under Milk Wood. The A40 from London reaches its end, nominally in Fishguard but now, more accurately in Goodwick where the Irish Ferries berth.
