Discussion on SN1241
Cemaes, nice place Pembroke, especially good geologic section, erosion features, farmland use and some history artefacts thereof. Quiet and wet and cold in Spring evenings. One or two rivers entering from the north east but generally it has its own coastal streams descending through the rock structures and sediment filled rifts, nice harbours for shelter and rock sequences, intrusions and resting students with drawing blocks and notes. Lots of crosses, chapels and long walks in the baking sun over undulating cliffs and some rock platforms of a distinctive nature. Generally noted as Ordovician and Sandstone and Shales classified ORS/Silurian with boundary issues, or better a continuing sequence, but all folded and faulted with a distinctive trend from west toward north east, curving to Mid Wales, coast to inland, the sandstones are south, the shales north and in particular central valley zone, farm country of arable and dairy, steers and sheep. Less forestry than the north and some mining particularly coal seams rich in anthracite from coastal surface exposures cut subsurface until some fell in the drift tunnels. There are series of materials and finely bedded and massively bedded sections.
