Flats by Porthmadog Harbour, Gwynedd
Located beside the harbour entrance, and served by a road, along which it is possible to walk, to Borth-y-Gest; a small bay, overlooked by some guest houses. Near the centre of picture, and covered with small trees, is Cei Ballast (Ballast Bank); formed, in the middle/late 19th century, by in-coming sailing ships dumping ballast, before taking on full loads of slate.

Porthmadog - Harbour
In the second half of the 19th century Porthmadog was a flourishing port, its population expanding from 885 in 1821 to over 3,000 by 1861. The rapidly expanding cities of England needed high quality roofing slate, which was transported to the new port by tramway from the quarries in Ffestiniog and Llanfrothen.

Porthmadog Harbour
Looking south, with the southern tip of Cei Ballast [Ballast Island] visible on the left, behind the harbourside apartments. The lines of mooring buoys stretching into the distance show the popularity of the harbour in the summer months.
