The Countryside
The most striking feature of the Llyn countryside is the numerous
stonewalls and hedgerows that surround the fields and country lanes.
Farming practice here, whilst enhanced by modern machinery, has had
little impact on the topography of the area. Sheep farming is still
the main agricultural pursuit and modern methods have had minimal
adverse impact on wildlife. The hundreds of miles of country lanes are
much as they were generations ago. The agricultural interior is
bordered on three sides by windswept cliffs, moor land, or coastal
sand dunes.
