Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Concrete steps near the summit of Carn Llidi
  • The summit of Carn Llidi is 181 metres (594 ft) above sea level with commanding views east over Pembrokeshire.
  • The view to the west spans 180 degrees of the Irish Sea and western approaches making Carn Llidi a natural location for defensive surveillance during both world wars.
  • During WWI a hydrophone station was built near the summit to detect enemy submarines in the western approaches. The same site was re-used throughout WWII, first as a radio station and observation point, then later as a radar station. The concrete and brick foundations of these defence sites remain and the concrete footpaths aid access to the summit.
