Bluestone Country denotes the heart of the Pembrokeshire National Park where the spotted dolerite quarry on the ridge of the Preseli Mountains is the origin of stones used at Stonehenge some 180 miles away. Many layers of Legend, Mystery and Magic held in this beautiful landscape have inspired generations of poets and artists; Dylan Thomas, Waldo, and R.S. Thomas, among many.
Many stone megaliths, cromlechs, dolmens, stone circles, and ancient sites can be visited locally. Also nearby are 11thC Celtic Crosses, Castles, an Iron Age Fort, Medieval churches, Ancient Woodlands of which one is a Special Site of Scientific Interest with over 500 lichens and mosses.
