The Needle Rock at Fishguard, Wales: A Timeless Maritime Tradition This photograph, taken in 1911, showcases the unique geological phenomenon of the Needle Rock at Fishguard, Wales. Standing proudly at 130 feet high, this dolerite stack is a natural wonder of the Welsh coast, characterized by its distinctive hole running through its base. The Needle Rock has long been a source of fascination for locals and visitors alike, with the hole serving as a popular attraction for boaters seeking to 'thread the needle.' In this image, we see a group of intrepid locals rowing a boat through the opening, an activity that has been passed down through generations. The men in the boat, dressed in traditional Welsh clothing, expertly navigate their vessel, skillfully maneuvering it through the narrow passage. The sea around them is calm, reflecting the clear blue sky above, creating a serene and picturesque scene. The Needle Rock, with its towering height and intriguing hole, is a testament to the natural beauty and geological history of the Welsh coast. The people in this photograph, engaging in the age-old tradition of threading the needle, add a human element to this geological phenomenon, reminding us of the deep connection between the people of Fishguard and the sea that has shaped their lives for centuries.
