Goodwick is a seaside town in Pembrokeshire, south-west Wales, immediately west of its twin town of Fishguard. The coasts of Wales went through Norse raids through the Viking Era and, in the latter 10th century, Norse trading posts and settlements eventually became set up. Goodwick was a modest fishing village in the parish of Llanwnda, but in 1887 work started on a railway connection and harbour, and the village proliferated to service this. The primary market is now tourism although in the town’s industrial past brick making was once an important industry. Some fishing still occurs on a small scale however most activity is centred on Milford Haven. The regional beach, Goowick Sands, is where the defeated French invasion force convened before their unconditional surrender on 24 February 1797. Fishguard and Goodwick railway station served regional rail tourists from the town, and from nearby Fishguard, before the line was essentially closed to such guests by the drop in service to boat trains only in 1964. After this, trains only served Fishguard Harbour and the station fell into disrepair. Following financial investment from Network Rail and Pembrokeshire County Council the station has now been re-built and was reopened for passengers again, on 14 May 2012. It is served by the boat trains and the newly offered local trains. The town is also served by the Fishguard town service bus, which runs alternately from Harbour Village or Stop-and-Call, at first a different settlement, to Fishguard town hall. Two Fishguard to St. Davids bus routes also pass through the town. For all of your home refurbishments, be sure to find reliable experts in Goodwick to make certain of quality.
