PENRHOS LLIGWY SSSI


These remnants of heathland on infertile sandstones support marsh gentian and other heathland species.  Management here uses a combination of controlled burning and pony grazing. The middle section (which along with the northern section is open access land) is separated from the southern remnant by a conifer plantation on former heathland.
