On Tuesday, Dave, Paul and I circumnavigated Carn Llidi in search of the deserted village and a cromlech. It was our longest walk so far and sadly my phone / camera had gone flat by the time we found the cromlech, so only 3 photos.
We walked through farmyards to get to the track. This is part of the view looking back to Whitesands and Ramsey Island. After a bit of a climb we found these gorgeous creatures. There are a lot of wild horses around here. That's the pinnacle of Carn Llidi behind them.
And then, dewey eyed, on to the deserted Quaker village. Somehow the occupants used to fish and carry their catch to Haverfordwest 15 miles away. No wonder they deserted.
(This is cheating a bit, but I went back over the weekend and took a photo of the cromlech. It is known locally as Coen Arthur, but after getting his legs ripped to shreds in search of it on Tuesday, Paul announced disbelief that we had spent an hour looking for 'that sodding thing'. Here it is
