Poetry. The poems in THE HOUSES ALONG THE WALL create a fictional history for sixteen of the houses along the Parrog near Newport, Pembrokeshire. From a man who quits drinking to marry his love, the life of ferryman Jack Price, Belgian immigrants, the disappearance of Suzy Lamplugh and Ondara House to a poem about a final resting place outside St Mary's Church, Newport. Together these poems celebrate a disappearing Welsh community through wonderful atmospheric poems which paint an authentic picture of life and scenery along the Parrog coastline. Two of the poems, "In His Cups" and "The Last House on the River," were set to music and performed by Roddy Williams at the Wigmore Hall for its At Lunch season in 2014, broadcast live on BBC Radio 3.

Photographing Pembrokeshire: A Paradise for Pirates leads readers through Pembrokeshire locations frequented by pirates, smugglers, wreckers and others who have exploited the coastline from earliest times to the present day. Ieuan Morris' striking images and fascinating accompanying text in both Welsh and English throw new light on one of Britain's most stunning regions. People have been relocating to Pembrokeshire since the 12th century, not just from other parts of the UK but from all over the globe. Morris discusses notorious historic events and looks at the linguistic and cultural differences that exist across the north-south demarcation known as the 'Landsker Line'. As well as showcasing the county's natural beauty, Morris considers the impact of migration, tourism and industrial pollution. Can Pembrokeshire and its indigenous population survive as we know them today? This book documents this glorious county as it is now and raises questions about its future. Full-color, ilustrated throughout.

Most kids make a pact with themselves to return at some point to a project or idea in later life. This for me was to complete the walk on the coastal path that completely envelopes the county of Pembrokeshire and, in doing so, to create a written and visual record of that journey. The history and mythology that engulf this little peninsular jutting out into the Irish Sea have always fascinated me, and I consider myself fortunate to be able to share the tale with you.
