Description

Mumbles and Gower Pubs explores the rich history and folklore of this unique corner of Wales. The area's stunning natural beauty has long attracted visitors, but its inns and taverns hold secrets and stories that reveal the region's complex past. From the village of Mumbles, with its oyster fishing heritage and limestone quarrying industry, to the 'Mumbles Mile' pub crawl phenomenon of the 1970s, this book delves into the area's fascinating history. It also touches on tales of shipwrecks, smuggling, and the people who frequented these pubs, including Petty Officer Edgar Evans and folk singer Phil Tanner. With its well-researched approach, this book offers a unique insight into Gower's pubs and their role in the region's story.
