Little England
It remains to secure for the nation that yet finer bit of coast by St. David's Head, in Pembrokeshire. When secured, as I must believe it will be, it will form the nucleus of a real National Park. Gifts for its purchase will be twice blessed and will be blessed in perpetuity. The wildness, the few inhabitants, the scenery of cliff and white sand and inland rocks, the peregrines and the seals, the Runic stones combine into a scene that even Hart- land Point cannot excel. The offer of this " bit of England beyond Wales " has been secured with great difficulty, for the land is in many ownerships and the chance is now or never. The threat is instant. The shacks and bungalow growths already multiply among the marram-grass at White Sands Bay on the cliffs opposite Ramsey Island and the babbling currents of the narrow channel, as well as on St. Bride's Bay to the south.
