The Secret Garden - Old Wolverton

The Sgadan Abergwaun sculpture, created by local artist John Cleal in 2006, celebrates the historic herring industry of Lower Fishguard, Wales. This bronze piece features a shoal of fish elegantly swimming above a massive 25-ton Preseli stone boulder, situated on the picturesque Quayside overlooking the old Harbour.

Reflecting the cultural significance of herrings, which were once vital to the local economy, the sculpture pays homage to the community historically referred to as "sgadan Abergwaun." It serves as a striking tribute in Y Cwm, the former fishing and trading port of Fishguard, blending art with the rich maritime heritage of the area.
