Dylan Thomas’ (1914-1953) centenary will be celebrated with many events in South Wales throughout the year.
The 1973 film of Under Milk Wood, with Richard Burton, was made in Lower Fishguard. I remember the houses round the harbour dressed with new shop names and colours for the occasion. The rights of the film have since been gifted, by the director, to the people of Wales.
Should you be interested in marking this significant year while staying at Tegfan, you could walk down to Pwllgwaelod and have a pint at our local ‘Old Sailors’ (or The Sailor’s Safety to give it the name Dylan Thomas would have used). It is said that Dylan Thomas visited the pub in 1951.
