Gwalia House, the one and only draper’s shop in the main street at Laugharne catered not only for the comfort of the body, but the satisfaction of the feet as well. Inside, Wellington boots hung from the ceiling, like sides of bacon. ...... Dylan Thomas purchased Wellington boots for his son Llewellyn from Gwalia House.  Min Lewis, Lewis, Laugharne and Dylan Thomas, 1967, p. 63
