Milford dates from 1790, when it became the seat of a royal dockyard for the construction of ships of war. A large and populous town quickly arose, but in 1814 the dockyard was removed further up the haven to Pater (Pembroke Dock), and since that time Milford has been in a languishing state. Extensive and convenient docks capable of accommodating the largest vessels are in course of construction, and with their completion Milford will probably become a great seat of trade with America. (For shipping statistics, see Appendix.) Milford forms one of the Pembroke District of Par- liamentary Boroughs, which returns 1 member. — 2.
