Dylans Boat House
Dylan Thomas the Welsh poet used this boat house to write. There are extensive views across the bay which perhaps provided him with inspirations. As you can see the boat house has been left as it was as a shrine to the poet. The furniture came from the main Thomas household.
In this shed, Dylan wrote many of his finest works. The first poem he wrote was "Over Sir John’s Hill" in which he describes the view from the shed, and in which he talks of birds stalking their prey and bringing death in the midst of this beauty. Life, death, beauty, tragedy, eternity and God: Dylan could see them all from his window in this unique place. www.dylanthomasboathouse.com/english/boathouse/history.html
