HISTORY
Preseli Dolerite (Bluestone) is a metamorphic igneous rock made up of Plagioclase Feldspar and Augite. It is a medium grained dark and heavy rock, harder than granite. Legend has it that Merlin transported stones from the Preseli Hills in Wales to Stonehenge for the construction of Camelot and King Arthur’s Round Table. Of the 7 circles that go to make up Stonehenge, the 5th circle and inner horseshoe are constructed from stones known as “Bluestones” which originated in the Preseli Hills, Wales. Of the 45 remaining stones at Stonehenge, 9 remain standing in the 5th circle and 7 in the horseshoe.

The Welsh legends called the Mabinogion, which means “Tales of Youth”, come from here and it is said that the way into “Annwn”, the Welsh fairyland, can be found here too. Indeed, Pentre Ifan, sometimes called “The Womb of Cerridwen”, which is also built of Preseli Bluestone and located within the Preseli Hills, is said to be one of the main gateways into the realm of Fairies.

The Preseli Hills themselves are criss-crossed with ley lines, ancient tracks, standing stones, burial chambers, stone circles and the hills which sparkle with shining white crystal quartz. Even during early Christian times, the place was considered almost as holy as Jerusalem and Rome. This is also the land of Druids.
