How much do we know about Stonehenge? Less than we think. And what has Stonehenge got to do with the Ice Age? More than we might think. This blog is mostly devoted to the problems of where the Stonehenge bluestones came from, and how they got from their source areas to the monument. Now and then I will muse on related Stonehenge topics which have an Ice Age dimension...

Submerged forest at Abermawr
After the winter storms (or some of them -- they probably haven't finished yet) there are some nice exposures of the submerged forest at the bottom edge of the storm beach. It was a bit too stormy today, and the tide wasn't low enough to examine the exposures properly -- but as usual we can see fallen trees and branches, old tree roots and patches of peat.
This is another great photo from Abermawr, recently posted on the Pembs Geology Facebook page by Dan Soper.
How is the erosion at the back of the beach?

Interesting that you should ask that, Dave. I was quite surprised when I saw what has been happening lately -- will do a post shortly.....
