Little and Broad Haven Lifeboat Station is a Royal National Lifeboat Institution (RNLI) lifeboat station in Pembrokeshire, West Wales. The station was opened in 1882 at Little Haven where it operated until 1921. It reopened in 1967 under its present name, and serves the area in St Bride's Bay surrounding Little Haven and Broad Haven resorts. When it was built it was the RNLI's smallest lifeboat station.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://www.littlehavenlifeboat.co.uk/history.html )〕 The station operates a inshore lifeboat, launched by tractor and trailer. ==History== When the RNLI first established the station in 1882 the lifeboat was kept afloat under the shelter of Goldtrop Head.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=http://historypoints.org/index.php?page=little-and-broad-haven-lifeboat-station )〕 In 1903 a boathouse and slipway were built. By 1921 there was reduced need for the service and the station closed with cover available from St Davids and Angle. By 1967, with the increase of pleasure boating and the development of the local holiday beaches, the RNLI reopened the station in a boathouse built by the Rural District Council. A dedicated boathouse was built in 1982.〔 The station has had its own fundraising branch since 1975 which, with the station's souvenir shop, has raised over £350,000.〔(【引用サイトリンク】url=https://www.rnli.org/aboutus/aboutthernli/ourpeople/Pages/Celebrity-supporters-for-the-RNLI.aspx )〕 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア（Wikipedia）』 ■ウィキペディアで「Little and Broad Haven Lifeboat Station」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
