RNLI St Davids Lifeboat Station
RNLI St Davids (based in St Justinian, near St Davids, Pembrokeshire, Wales) opened in 1869.
At present there are three stations the original station rebuilt in the early 1900s, the current station and the new larger station construction of which commenced in summer 2014.
The new station accommodates a Tamar Class boat which is currently under construction.
Part of the slipway of the original station is used as a landing point for the Ramsey Island ferries.
The only access to the current and original stations is via a steep flight or steps, however, a small cable operated funicular railway is available to raise and lower equipment.
