Barrow cemetery in Pembrokeshire.

This barrow cemetery straddles the B4320 which runs from Pembroke to Angle. There are eight barrows in total - one to the north of the road and seven to the south. Five of the barrows can be seen from the footpath that runs south from the road at the juntion. The barrows seem to be well preserved and any plough damage is limited.
