Boats moored on the River Nevern by Newport Boat Club at Parrog, Newport. Newport Boat Club occupies the only remaining storehouse of the once thriving commercial port at Parrog, from where commodities including wool, cloth, slate and herring were shipped. From the 1850s trade declined with the arrival of the railways. The last commercial ship to use Newport Harbour was the Angus, which delivered a cargo of coal in 1934. Newport Boat Club took over the building on the banks of the River Nevern in 1976.
