Concarneau Harbor Tales and Oddities From Brittany
Concarneau, ten miles south of Rosporden on the Orleans line, is a vivid Breton harbor town. The old walled area, reachable by a bridge to the newer harbor district, sits afloat at high tide with sardine nets drying from masts in blue gray and brown hues. The fishing industry employs thousands, the fleet’s comings and goings are striking, though low tides bring a smelly drawback. The piece notes sanitary concerns, the charm of old walls, and contrasts with other observations from Westminster Gazette and London Tit-Bits, ending with a brief nod to Eli Terry clocks from Plymouth, Connecticut.
