You can find St Govan’s Chapel in a gap in the cliffs on the rugged South Pembrokeshire coast. Another old mysterious place in Wales.
Located near the village of Bosherton, St Govan’s is a medieval pilgrimage chapel in a dramatic setting looking out to the Atlantic, it is approached down a flight of worn stone steps.
The location of St Govan’s Chapel is marked on google maps.
The chapel itself is thought to date to the 13th to 14th centuries and is constructed of limestone but parts of it may date back further to the sixth century.
About 25 m south of St Govan's church is a well, reached by a flight of rough steps. It was fed by a spring but this has long since dried up.
The chapel and its holy well gained a reputation for the miraculous cure of lameness and eye disease.
You can also reach St Govan’s head along the Pembrokeshire coast path although check the schedule of neighbouring Castlemartin Firing Range which conducts regular military exercises which close the path and access to the chapel.
To the east of St Govans Chapel are some remains of some World War II firing ranges including blockhouses and a circular aerial bombing target utilised by RAF Brawdy.
The South Pembrokeshire coast is a beautiful area and is perfect for walking. (When the firing range is closed!)
