| Visited 7.6.14 A weekend away in Pembroke – hurrah! On the way I just had to show the children this wonderful site. This is one of those places that you know you will return to again and again. We parked as before and before long we were heading down the path towards the burial chamber. Since my last visit the path had become quite overgrown in places and the nettles were winning the battle with my bare legs! I lifted the children over the fence and we soon at this magical place. If there are such things as magical places – this is one of them. Particularly on the weekend when the quarry is closed and all that can be heard is birdsong and running water. The babbling water of the stream, the boulders and trees heavily laden in a matting of green moss. And of course the wonderful burial chamber itself. It was damp here today; judging by the amount of moss around I imagine this is the norm. I could go on and on about this place but I won’t. All I will say is if at all possible please try to visit. You won’t be disappointed. Even little Sophie (not renowned for her prehistoric interests) asked ‘can we come back again one day?’ What better endorsement could you wish for? |
