In this photograph, the historic Salutation Hotel in Haverfordwest, South Wales, takes center stage against the backdrop of Salutation Square. The image, taken in the late 19th or early 20th century, offers a glimpse into the past, showcasing the charm and elegance of this once-popular destination. The Salutation Hotel, located on the right side of the square, is a grand, Victorian-era building with its distinctive portico and columns. A stylish barouche, a type of horse-drawn carriage, is parked outside, ready to ferry guests to and from the nearby railway station. The railway transport revolutionized travel during this era, making it easier for visitors to explore the beautiful town of Haverfordwest and the surrounding Pembrokeshire countryside in South Wales. The square itself is bustling with activity, as people go about their daily routines. A bicycle leans against a lamppost, suggesting that some may have chosen to travel by pedal power. The unusual lamppost, a unique feature of the square, doubles as a water trough for horses, reflecting the importance of these animals in the transportation of goods and passengers during this time. The town of Haverfordwest, located in the county of Dyfed, has a rich history, with its origins dating back to the 13th century. The Salutation Hotel, with its welcoming atmosphere and convenient location, was a popular choice for travelers and locals alike. This photograph captures a moment in time, offering a fascinating glimpse into the history and character of Haverfordwest and the wider region of South Wales.
