Llanymynech Rocks
Nature taking back its own
Straddling the border between England and Wales, the reserve lies at the southern end of the carboniferous limestone outcrop that stretches from Anglesey and the Great Orme at Llandudno. From the early 19th century until the end of the first world war the site was a busy limestone quarry - since then, peace has returned and nature has crept in to steal it back for herself.
Directions to the reserve: The reserve is found at grid reference SJ267218 to the west of the A483 between Llanymynech and Pant. From the east, park in the car park off Underhill Lane in Pant. From the west, follow the Offas Dyke footpath from the golf course.
