Pembrokeshire: life on the land and the Alumchine ferry


A lurcher demonstrates his skill at riding bareback at Westhill Farm, Manorbier. At Barn Farm, Rosemarket, a bull indicates that he is non too bullish when he is run out of the yard by dogs but the hens just peck about as usual when farmer Gwilly Pawlett feeds them, assisted by his bevy of grand-daughters. Away from the farms, trips can be taken by train, by bus (Silcox) or paddle steamer, the Alumchine operating between Hobbs' Point, Pembroke Dock and Neyland 1933-56.
