This warning sign (as if you would....!) is at Cobbler's Hole, a steep rocky inlet on St Ann's Head in Pembrokeshire. It has almost vertical walls with the sea crashing in and out over 100 feet below. The star attraction of Cobbler's Hole is the splendid anticline and syncline fold couplet in the Devonian-age Milford Haven Group of the Old Red Sandstone rocks.

A nice, bright, blusterous morning in Pembrokeshire! Cobbler's Hole is a steep rocky inlet on St Ann's Head in Pembrokeshire. It has almost vertical walls with the sea crashing in and out over 100 feet below. The star attraction of Cobbler's Hole is the splendid anticline and syncline fold couplet in the Devonian-age Milford Haven Group of the Old Red Sandstone rocks. The 'space problem' in the core of the folds has been accommodated by minor thrusting. There is also a strong axial planar cleavage, particularly developed in the finer grained sediments. Skokholm and Skomer islands are visible in the distance.
