Informations supplémentaires:
St David’s Head, Pembrokeshire, Wales is a barren rocky headland open to walkers and ramblers for walking and scrambling under open skies in embracing invigorating sea air. In 1793 Sir Richard Cold Hoare said in his "Journal of a Tour of South Wales” said "No place could ever be more suited to retirement, contemplation or Druidical mysteries, surrounded by inaccessible rock and open to a wide expanse of ocean. Nothing seems wanting but the thick impenetrable groves of oaks which have been thought concomitant to places of Druidical worship and which, from the exposed nature of this situation, would never, I think, have existed here even in former days." Str David’s Head includes sandy beaches, granite cliffs and challenging terrain to explore the habitat for hardy animals, fish, seabirds including perfegrine falcons, seals and porpoises. There have been druidical episodes and the area was inhabited during the iron age and includes remnants of forts, enclosures and burial chambers. It was described in a Roman survey of the known world in 140 AD (Ptolemy's Geography) as the 'Promontory of the Eight Perils'
