Fishguard info
Fishguard (Welsh:
Abergwaun - "Mouth of the River Gwaun")
is a coastal town in Pembrokeshire,
Wales. From the port of
Fishguard Harbour (not actually in Fishguard,
but in Goodwick) a
regular ferry leaves for Rosslare in Ireland.
Fishguard is the terminus of the A40 London to
Fishguard trunk road.
Fishguard's ancient Royal Oak
pub saw the surrender signed following the last
attempt to invade mainland Britain, in 1797, when
a French-inspired force of 1400 troops in four
warships landed on 22 February at Carregwastad
Head, hoping to trigger an uprising. The invasion,
executed by units very far from the top drawer
of the French forces, did not go at all well and
was concluded with little harm done on either
side - a few fatalities and some looting. The
surrender took place on 25 February. The local
heroine of the invasion was Jemima Nicholas, who
with her pitchfork single-handedly rounded up
12 invaders. The whole story is told by the Fishguard
Tapestry, which was created for the 200th anniversary
as a deliberate echo of the Bayeux Tapestry, and
is on display in a hall near the town centre.
