1870: Huntsman's Leap is a deep, narrow and sheer-sided Limestone chasm near St Gowan's or St Govan's Head. The name derives from local folklore, when a hunter on horseback is said to have jumped from one side of the chasm to the other whilst being pursued. On looking back and seeing the gap that he had jumped, he died of shock. Pembrokeshire, South Wales
