Thanks for the lovely comment, we're enjoying learning something new about the process with every video. This was a really fun one to make, it's been on the cards for a while, so Coral has been tinkering with the script for a bit... there were too many ancient sites on OSmaps to mention 😁 what an awesome silhouette to have against the skyline!

Lovely little film. Wonderful to see the hut platforms under a sprinkling of snow. Pity you didn't have more time, you could have gone and banged a few lithophones over at Carn Menyn. The whole of the Preseli Hills is a stunning ritual landscape with views from some ares to die for. It's a bit of a tramp there and back from the other end though. We visited a few years ago whils staying in the little village of Nevern. Though stupidly, the day before whilst visiting some NT property I'd tripped up and damaged my achiles tendon whilst dicking around in front of my wife. Lets just say it was a paintful experience hobbling up the to the cairns and beyond. Thank goodness for support bandages and extra strong solpadeine. look forward t your next outing.

Thank you 😁 urgh, walking up there with a bad achilles, the painkillers must have been strong 😅 I love the silhouette of carn menin, looks like a sleeping dragon from a lot of angles (with a bit of imagination), we will have to make a video walking the ridgeway in the spring... the wind was icy up walking on the hills yesterday!

Wrap up warm, thin layers are the way to go, you can add or peel off as you need it. Marino wool base layers and leggings are fab (tho expensive it has to be said...picked mine up used). This time of year wth the cold winds it's hard to regulate how much you perspire, which in a strong wind can make life more than a little chilly, esp when you stop as I'm sure you've found out. TBH, if you're gonna do the ridgeway from the West to East, the first coupla miles passed the plantation are a little dull other than the views towards Nevern.. Some cracking hut circles further along and Bedd Arthur is a quaint little circle (oval? almost like a little boat burial). Unfortunately I learned the hard way hiking many hills to always keep Solpadeine, ankle/knee support and ibuprofen in the pack, I'm a clumsy old donkey. Tho don't have any booze with Solpadeine, it has codeine in it and could make things a lttle drowsy. Keep well! I look forward to more of your movies. x

I am enjoying catching up with your videos. This is my home area and I am surprised I havent bumped into you as I am out and about in hte Preseli's most weekends. There has been a couple of video's where you have commented on the alleged quarries at Craig Rhos y Felin and Carn Goeddog. These speculative quarry sites are just that and there is little to no evidence to justify these claims and are locally contraversial.

Hi, thanks for watching and commenting! It's probably only a matter of time before we cross paths... but we do try and avoid the weekends best we can, less people is generally better for filming. Yes, we agree that the quarries mentioned are simply part of one theory... Apologies if our delivery did not make this clear enough, perhaps we were quoting a paper and didn't provide a rebuttal? Would have to review the scripts... We aim to provide a reasonably unbiased presentation of facts, theories and folklore... along with relevant sources... to promote further research and discussion 😅

Have you ever been to the Hamburger Hillfort south of Castell Henllys and the A487? Always felt it had lots of potential for further investigation…

Hi there, we haven't heard of that one but would love to see it. I can't seem to find it online but on maps can see a circular structure in a field below "harries planning design management".. could that be the one?

Hi, thanks for watching and commenting 😁 Yes, when writing the script, we did think of including a comment about this translation. A joke about Googles verion of 'bald head' also nearly made it in. But all sources we could find simply state 'hill of three cairns', so perhaps we are missing something...

Super. You almost lost me when you started talking about MPP.

Thanks! But yes, we did use some poetic license; purely because we like to include folklore 😁 We're currently editing writing the script for a Waun Mawn video and including lots of references, from Brian John and others, so it's turning into a bit of long one 😅
