Abstract: | A paleomagnetic investigation of the Lower Devonian Llandstadwell Formation in southwest Wales has yielded a characteristic direction (declination = 196°, inclination = −5°) that passes a fold test. Comparison of the corresponding virtual geomagnetic pole (334°E, 39°S) to previously published poles for Great Britain indicates that the magnetization is secondary and likely to be of Carboniferous age. No evidence for post-Hercynian rotation of Pembrokeshire is indicated by our data. |
