The detailed image showcases the harbor bustling with ships and boats, while a castle sits atop a hill in the background. The artwork, part of Hill's "Remarks on a Tour to North and South Wales", provides a glimpse into the maritime life of the region in the late 18th century, capturing the architectural features of the town and the surrounding landscape.
