EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the three dedicated members of the Smalls Lighthouse crew, standing proudly in their uniforms against the rugged backdrop of Solva harbor in South Wales. Located near Haverfordwest in Pembrokeshire, Dyfed, the Smalls Lighthouse has been a vital beacon of safety for seafarers navigating the treacherous waters of the Irish Sea since its completion in 1868. The men in this photograph, dressed in their Victorian-era attire, embody the rich history and tradition of lighthouse keeping. With their stern expressions and postures of readiness, they convey a sense of duty and commitment to their important role. The Welsh landscape, with its rolling hills and rocky coastline, adds to the sense of isolation and the harsh conditions these men faced on a daily basis. The photograph, taken in the late 1890s, provides a glimpse into the past and offers a window into the lives of these unsung heroes. The Smalls Lighthouse crew were responsible for maintaining the light and ensuring its continuity, often braving storms and rough seas to keep the lighthouse operational. Their work was essential for the safety of ships and sailors, and their dedication and bravery are deserving of recognition. This photograph is a testament to the past and the important role that lighthouses and their crews played in the maritime history of Wales and beyond. It is a reminder of the sacrifices made by these men and the vital role they played in keeping the sea lanes safe for generations of seafarers.
