Jess Philip's Dam Then and Now
Slightly out of Newport, but worth a mention. Jess Philip’s dam is/was on the Inverdovat road over to Tayport, on the right hand side at the bottom of the steep curving bend. Jess Philip was the sister of the famous Washer Willy. In fact it was she who was the laundress, no doubt sometimes using the water from the dam. Willy was just the messenger.
