"Porthgain", Pembrokeshire
On the second day in St Davids, I visited the TIC. In answer to my question about quiet lanes in which to paint, the receptionist recommended Porthgain. Porthgain is a relic from industrial history, first for its slate, then for brick making and finally for quarrying gravel. The large red brick buildings behind the breakwaters and the sheltered harbour are the hoppers, which were used to store gravel before shipment. Now the harbour is busy with local fishermen's boats and recreational craft in summer.
