The Age of the Highest Coal Measures in West Pembrokeshire

Published online by Cambridge University Press:  01 May 2009

Extract

The westward extension of the South Wales Coalfield in Pembrokeshire is of complicated structure and the sequence is very imperfectly known. This is particularly true of the west of the county, where the coalfield has been very little worked for many years. In the eastern portion of the county, between Haverfordwest and Carmarthen Bay, the Coal Measures consist mainly of shales which have been correlated with the Lower Coal Series of the main part of the South Wales Coalfield and which are not higher than the Pulchra Zone.
