Heritage Coasts (England and Wales)
There are 43 designated Heritage Coasts in England and Wales. The "heritage coast" scheme was initiated to protect the coastline of special scenic and environmental value from undesirable development. Much of the designated coastline is owned by the National Trust, through its Project Neptune appeal.
Some 31% of the coast in England and 42% in Wales is protected under the heritage coast scheme. Many of these coasts are part of larger National Parks or Areas of Outstanding Natural Beauty, and the protected area extends inland for an average of 1 1/2 miles.

The Green Bridge of Wales - Pembrokeshire
The Green Bridge of Wales is one of the most famous landmarks in Wales, and one of the most spectacular sites on the Pembrokeshire Coast. The Green Bridge is a limestone arch. It is the limestone of the South Pembrokeshire Coast that is responsible for some of the most beautiful natural features. One day in the future the centre of the arch will collapse, and the arch will become a stack.
