NGR: SN06093930 (Landranger map 145/Outdoor Leisure North Pembrokeshire map (No 35))

Excavations have revealed cremated bone, Beaker and Grooved ware sherds.

The Devil's Quoit submitted by Adam Stanford on 16th Nov 2006. Devils Quoit (PEM 25) also known as Broomhill Barrows near Freshwater West. I would suggest this is a collapsed burial chamber rather than earthfast (as stated by Nash 2006, Daniel 1950 and others). I say this because of what looks like a large collapsed orthostat that is now visible and that the capstone rests on.

Harold Stone (Bosherton) submitted by Bladup on 13th Sep 2013. Harold Stone (Bosherton) - it looked to my eyes to have maybe once been a side slab of a ruined chamber [quoit], and the stones around it - field clearance or part of a chambered cairn?

Log Text: I agree with Bladup: the standing stone could be a remnant of a chamber. It is erected in a grassy mound studded with exposed stones possibly indicating a ruined cairn.

Devil's Quoit (Stackpole) submitted by Horatio on 19th May 2019. Access is easy to find if approaching from Stackpole warren, after entering the double gate enclosure from the woods, before leaving through the second gate in front of you. look right and you'll see a side gate that leads to the stone.

Log Text: The Devil's Quoit (Stackpole) is easy to visit from Stackpole Quay Car Park. Head W out of the car park. After c. 400 yards head straight through a crossroad. Continue W for c. 500 yards to reach a path heading S. Take the path S heading for a forest. After you exit the forest turn W into a field for c. 120 yards to reach Devil's Quoit (Stackpole Warren). My walking route is viewable on Devil's Quoit (Stackpole Warren).
