The Captain's Wife
The Captain's Wife is a public house in the former fishing hamlet of Swanbridge in Sully, between Barry and Penarth, Vale of Glamorgan, south Wales. The pub was established in 1977 from a row of three sea houses. Notable smuggling operations once took place here and a tunnel connected the sea to what was known as Sully House.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=CAPTAINS WIFE PUBLIC HOUSE Barry, Nr Cardiff )〕 It takes its name from the wife of a sea captain who lived here and buried her in a nearby wood rather than confessing to her dying aboard his ship. The body of the wife was originally kept in a box that was mistaken for treasure and stolen.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The Captain's Wife in Penarth )〕 Today the Spinney Park Holiday and Leisure Park surrounds the pub.
==Parking==
In 2002 the owners of the pub caused controversy by placing parking charges for people coming to the pub and beach. By January 2003, the scheme had been dropped. Local councillor Anthony Ernest said, "I am extremely pleased that the owners have now realised that their decision, while perhaps 'commercial' in its approach, in fact did little more than cause an upset to the many people who over many years have visited Swanbridge to enjoy the views, and take a little refreshment at the same time. I took a number of steps to encourage the proprietors to scrap the charges, which had local people up in arms. I am pleased that they have now reflected on that decision and decided that the hassle caused was not worth the effort, let alone the loss of business."
