Poppy Cottage

Poppy Cottage

The cottage is one of about ten ruins in the abandoned settlement of Maes y Mynedd, about three miles from Saint Davids. The cottages were once the homes of Quaker families waiting to ship to Pennsylvania, and the green lane leading to the village over Carnedd Leithr was known as the road to New York. The village was abandoned many years ago, and cottages are in ruin, but the whole site has an abundance of wild flowers through many months of the year, giving it a quite magical appearance
