Volume Twelve - Pre-Victorian to the Present Day - further aspects - My Trip to Flat Holm - 2024 . . .

I really enjoyed the trip to Flat Holm and learnt a great deal about its importance to the Penarth Dock story in that it provided artillery cover for the port of Cardiff as well as providing an isolation hospital to protect our people and trade. So it was undoubtedly an important element of our Penarth Dock story. Further research was therefore undertaken!

	1845 - The Tithe Map of the Parish of St. Mary's, Cardiff - dated September 1845 provides an insight into the 'Occupiers' of the Flat Holme Island at that date.
