About Newport (Pembrokeshire)

Newport Pembrokeshire lies on the shores of Newport Bay between the towns of Fishguard and Cardigan. Its Welsh name Trefdraeth means Town By The Sands and it once rivalled Fishguard’s port and shipbuilding industries until struck by plague in the 16th century so having its thriving wool and fishing trade destroyed.
