Tafarn-y-Bwlch submitted by pab on 10th Apr 2009. View between Talfarn y Bwlch stone pair. This photo, taken Good Friday 2009, shows (I'm fairly sure) Garn Farw on the horizon, bearing 282, and 11.9 miles away.
It really can be that clear in Wales, but please don't tell anyone!

Flimston Castle
Date Added: 18th Sep 2010

Country: Wales (Pembrokeshire)
Visited: Yes on 6th Jun 2009
Flimston Castle submitted by pab on 6th Jun 2009. Flimston Fort. View of ramparts and ditches, taken from the west. The large crack in the cliff shows just how much the headland will have reduced in extent since its use as hillfort.
Photo taken 31 May 2009 - before travelling far to see the site, check first that access is allowed as the raod goes through the Castlemartin (tank) firing range.

Hobbyhorse Bay submitted by pab on 6th Jun 2009. Site in Pembrokeshire (Sir Benfro) Wales:
Linney Head Hillfort, Iron Age and earlier. This is the general view from the west. Would have preferred not to have the minibus in shot, but it does actually give some idea of scale...and it did allow us to go through the Artillery Range as well!

Caerau Gaer-1 submitted by pab on 25th Apr 2010. Caerau Gaer hillfort, this hidden gem commands wonderful views south over the valley, whilst its close neighbour (Llanddewi Gaer) looks north towards the Precelli Hills.
The lanes linking the two hilltops have the incomparable feel of ancient trackways....with a fox happily wandering along ahead of me!

Craig Rhosyfelin
Date Added: 9th Feb 2012
Site Type: Rock Outcrop
Country: Wales (Pembrokeshire)
Visited: Yes on 27th Feb 2011
Craig Rhosyfelin submitted by PAB on 27th Feb 2011. Runemage commented that a map might be useful to help people understand what the 'new' discovery means, so I popped up there at lunchtime to try and get a picture to show the connections.
This is one of our favourite spots for Sunday lunch, so no great hardship!
The Carn Meini outcrop is to the left of this shot - which is basically looking along the northern flank of the Preseli Hills towards Carn Ingli and the coast at Newport.
It is certainly true that no-one would take any ston...

Druidston Stones
Date Added: 7th Jun 2012
Site Type: Standing Stones
Country: Wales (Pembrokeshire)
Visited: Yes on 4th Jun 2012
Druidston Stones submitted by pab on 4th Jun 2012. Standing about 6ft high, this magnificent stone is surrounded by numerous small stones - but they do not give the impression of being packing etc.
The impression is more one of them giving some protection to the stone - which would be odd if it had been placed their in recent times as a rubbing stone for cattle.

Five cists arranged in an oval are visible from a field entrance west of Newport on the A487(T) in Pembrokeshire in SW Wales. Apparently the farmer does not mind considerate visitors entering the field to look.
May have been in use into the Bronze Age and covered by an oval mound.
