Abercastle
Abercastle is a village in the Welsh speaking area of Pembrokeshire, Wales. It has a working harbour which Abercastle Boat Owners Association operates. It is an old trading harbour which exported slate, grain, limestone, butter, honey, corn and coal.
Abercastle harbour was the landing site of Alfred Johnson, the first person to make a lone Atlantic crossing. He landed at Abercastle in August 1876, sixty days after setting off in Gloucester, Massachusetts. A commemorative plaque made of Welsh slate on the quay wall was opened by Johnson's grandson in 2003.
Half a mile west of Abercastle sits Carreg Samson, which is a 5000 year old Neolithic Burial Chamber and the place of over 1000 burials. It has a cap stone 15 feet long and 9 feet wide supported on three upright stones. Locals called it Samson because of a legend that Samson put it in position with his little finger.
The wreck of the Leysian sits on the west side of the harbour, about 50m from the cliffs. It is popular with divers who say that lots of fish live in there. It's also thought that a small shark visits the wreckage.
