    • 1956 September, F. F. Nicholls, “Neyland, A Forgotten Harbour”, in Railway Magazine, pages 629-630:
      For fifty years, then, five times a week, the packet steamers came and went along that superb stretch of blue water, the trains rattled down the wooded valley of the pill, and their passengers rested and refreshed themselves in thriving New Milford, where flunkeys bowed before the best hotel. Those are the days which Neyland people, especially the older ones, recall with pride.
