Description Site in Pembrokeshire (Sir Benfro): King's Quoit - position relative to the remaining line of red sandstone.

The stones next to King's Quoit would look massive enough in themselves were it not for the size of the capstone - but this picture shows that they are part of a natural line running right down the hillside and down to the sea.

For more information on the fault line - and how King's Quoit is aligned with it, have a look at:
