EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the imposing presence of Isambard Brunel's SS Great Eastern, berthed at Milford Haven in South Wales during the late 1870s. The iron sailing steamship, a marvel of Victorian engineering, stretches the entire length of Hamilton Terrace, dwarfing the surrounding buildings and dockside infrastructure. At this time, the SS Great Eastern was being utilized for a groundbreaking endeavor: the laying of submarine telegraph cables. The SS Great Eastern, also known as the "Leviathan of the Seas," was the largest ship in the world when it was launched in 1858. Its immense size and innovative design made it an ideal vessel for the arduous task of laying the transatlantic telegraph cable. In 1875, the ship was refitted for this purpose, and it embarked on several successful voyages to lay cables across the Atlantic Ocean. The photograph offers a glimpse into the rich maritime history of Milford Haven and Pembrokeshire, providing a tangible connection to the 1870s and the era of pioneering communications technology. The SS Great Eastern's visit to Milford Haven marked a significant moment in the development of global communications, paving the way for the interconnected world we know today. Unfortunately, the SS Great Eastern's illustrious career came to an end in the late 1880s. Despite its historical significance, the ship was eventually broken up for scrap in 1889-1890. This photograph serves as a poignant reminder of the SS Great Eastern's impressive legacy and the pivotal role it played in the history of transportation and communications.
