This is a drawing named ‘Dabricius’s Cave’ which was located somewhere in Fishguard in 1799. I am unaware where this cave is located and where the name originates from.
Any information would be much appreciated!

The cave is/was within the private grounds of Plas Glynymel in Lower Fishguard. It is so-named because the site was supposed to be the birthplace of St Dyfrig whose name in Latin became Dubricius. A pond called Pwll Dyfrig is close by. More information can be found in Archaeologia Cambrensis (1900 )here: https://cylchgronau.llyfrgell.cymru/view/4718179/4728335/127#?xywh=-1039%2C373%2C4738%2C3040&cv=126
