************* |
Pwllheli lifeboat
1891 A lifeboat station was established. A boathouse
was built, with doors at both ends so that the lifeboat could be launched
either into the harbour or over the beach.
|
1930
The station’s first motor lifeboat was kept afloat at moorings in
the harbour. The boathouse was not used between 1930 and 1953. Due
to silting at the harbour entrance it was decided that a
carriage-launch lifeboat should be reintroduced. The original
boathouse was again used to house the lifeboat. |
