Dobby’s Grave Spared as UK-Ireland Power Cable Redirected

TL;DR Summary
A £430 million Greenlink undersea interconnector between the UK and Ireland was rerouted to avoid passing through Dobby’s memorial at Freshwater West beach in Wales after Potter fans highlighted the issue; the line’s goal is to move surplus renewable energy and boost energy transfer and security between the two nations, with officials noting the memorial can stay if visitors stop leaving socks as it runs on a new route near Bronze Age remains, benefiting Pembrokeshire’s tourism economy.
