Who knew Mother Nature had a sense of humor? Introducing the latest attraction in Bosherton, Pembrokeshire - the 'Sinkhole Spectacle'! This jaw-dropping sinkhole, formed by the collapse of a Carboniferous limestone cave roof, is nature's way of reminding us that even rocks can have bad hair days! Picture this: a sunny September day in 2022 when suddenly, out of nowhere, this magnificent sinkhole appears along the picturesque Welsh coast. It's like someone took a giant cookie cutter and plopped it right into the ground! Visitors are left in awe as they witness firsthand how erosion and geological forces can create such dramatic landforms. But let's not forget about our star performer - Carboniferous limestone!
