Anti Landing Trench, Castlemartin

Anti Landing Trench

What is recorded here

Mud, grass and buried rope still mark the trench near Castlemartin, though the war that shaped it has left the local memory. It belongs to the Post Medieval period, when people dug against landing threats rather than waiting for them. The earth keeps that much of the argument: fear can be sharp enough to cut a coast into shapes.
