Hi all, hope you don't mind me popping in as I'm looking for a bit of help. But as someone with a keen interest in history/pre-history and religion I would like to visit some of the ancient sites, as I've never actually seen one in real life!
The problem I have, due to laziness, is that I don't drive.
Are there any sites in the South East Wales/ borders area that are accessible via public transport?

The most ancient place I've been to is Twmbarlwm, and that's because I can walk there!

'Allo there!

I'm afraid I can't offer any advice on SW Wales, but I do use the public transport to go look at rocks and stuff. I don't drive either, not without big red letter 'L's anyway.

Up here in the north east, I've found that a combination of train and cycle is pretty good for getting to see stuff. It even gets you to places you might not bother with in a car, as you don't have to worry about parking. It might be an idea to have a gander at the tma map browser and work out which sites are within easy cycling of a train station (assuming you has a bicycle of course, if not, ignore me, I'm waffling). By bike, you get to see old rocks, have a bit of exercise, and you still get time to read :)

Welcome aboard sttomas!

I'm based in mid-Wales, but I have a car, so I tend to use that for visiting sites. I reckon there must be a few sites that you could potentially get to by bus though (possibly with a bit of walking as well).

Tinkinswood and St. Lythans must be near a bus route?
