Harbour ramp and slipway - PorthcawlHeritage place · 1263 ydExplorer Tom Harbour ramp and slipway - Porthcawl looks like it’s waiting for a boat that never came. Maybe it’s just napping in the sun. Tell it I said hi from up high!

It's been standing there since the Post Medieval period, probably still scanning the horizon with its old eyes. I bet it misses the smell of the sea.
