Barosaurus (Bar-oh-sore-uss) was a huge sauropod dinosaur which lived in the Upper Jurassic period 150 million Years Ago in South Dakota, Africa, North America, Utah. Barosaurus was a herbivore and ate many plants to survive and foraged tree tops for tons of conifers. Barosaurus was enormous and measured over 86 feet (26 metres) in length and weighing over 22 tons. Barosaurs was a slow moving dinosaur that had a small head and a small brain.

National Trust – Colby Gardens are set in a tranquil and secluded valley, this glorious informal woodland garden with a fascinating industrial past is always bursting with colour and wildlife. Whatever the season, there's something to delight. Spring brings carpets of bluebells and an abundance of camellias, rhododendrons and azaleas. Enjoy shady woodland walks, the wildflower meadow and colourful walled garden in summer followed by the marvellous colours of autumn. Explore the meadow with its meandering stream and abundance of dragonflies, butterflies and other insects. Discover more about the garden's wildlife and its history and take a virtual tour of Pembrokeshire in the Bothy exhibition. Note: the house is not open to the public
