Gareth's Talk a great success

Gareth Mills' talk on 'A New View on the Pembroke Dock' was a great success with around 100 people attending. The talk explored the remarkable story of Pembroke Dock and questioned why - despite it being a world leader in shipbuilding in its Victorian heyday - it does not receive the recognition it deserves. The Waterfront Museum in Swansea, part of the National Museum of Wales, barely mentions it. Further to that it was the great Sunderland base, playing a vital role in WW2. Gareth is an impressive speaker and he has promised to return next year to give us another talk.
