Ropewalk
A ropeyard was established in Fishguard by Benjamin Williams in the mid-C18 and this street was used for stretching the ropes from the Ropeyard above, and sometimes even across West Street and all the way down the Slade (opposite Y Pantri.) The process involved putting the yarn through a register plate to keep strands separate, thence passing them to the strand tube and keeping them tight to preserve the formation. This tube was attached to a hook on the forming machine and as it was pulled down the rope walk, a twist was put into the strand. Rope-making was an essential ancillary industry to boat building, fishing and sea-faring.
