Seaports Wales is a guide to the harbours of the Welsh coastline, both those that had a small impact on local industry and those larger ports which were key areas for the development of UK trade. With a selection of well-known and more hidden locations, the book provides a fascinating insight into the maritime heritage of Wales.
David Williams showcases the coastline communities of Wales, focussing on the importance of the coastline to trade, leisure and economic history. Organised into twelve geographical locations, the book uncovers the historical and social impact of these harbours, ports and docks. Also highlighted are maritime attractions, aquatic sports, and hotels and restaurants in the regions, to allow visitors to get the most from their visits. A beautiful guide to the ports of Wales, this book is ideal for visitors to the areas, or those with an interest in the maritime and economic history of Wales.
