Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Aberdaron - Traeth/Beach During the 19th century a regular shipping service was operated from Aberdaron to Liverpool, exporting pigs, poultry and eggs; the vessels returned laden with coal for the neighbourhood. Limestone was also imported and offloaded into the water at high tide, then collected from the beach when the tide went out. Lime was needed to reduce the acidity of the local soil, and lime kilns were built on the beach to convert the limestone to quicklime. |
