Graffiti painted on stones of historical and environmental importance in the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park has caused environmental damage that could take decades to recover GRAFFITI painted on stones of historical and environmental importance in the Pembrokeshire Coast National Park has caused environmental damage that could take decades to recover. The white paint had blighted a Site of Special Scientific Interest at Carn Ingli, which is home to a diverse range of rocks, springs and scarce plants including lichens and rare damselfly coenagrion mercuriale. Staff from Pembrokeshire Coast National Park Authority carried out the careful removal work taking every precaution not to cause further damage. They followed an NRW-approved method statement to minimise the risk of further damaging the lichen flora.
Special care was also taken not to trample any important flora growing on the ground around the stone. Ross Grisbrook, environment officer, Natural Resources Wales, said: “Not only is graffiti illegal and unsightly, but can also be very damaging to the environment. An area that is a Site of Special Scientific Interest is somewhere that should be nurtured and respected. “Graffiti can damage the lichen flora that grows on stones. Once damaged, they can take decades to recolonise because they are slow-growing. “I would urge anyone tempted to do such a thing again to think about the impact it will have.”

This cottage may not have welcomed an occupant since about 1957 but every day it welcomes the sun rising over arguably one of the best, panoramic, uninterrupted sea views in the region.
