Was it here?

If there was a King Arthur, a Camelot and knights of the Round Table, then this place is a good candidate: Cadbury Castle within sight of the Gladstonebury Tor to the North. A strong gate house and a representative hall, expensive imported ware dating back to the 5th century AD have been found in this impressive place.

Da kommt das Kind im Manne durch - würde am liebsten mit einer Schaufel auf Schatzsuche gehen ;-)
Klasse Aufnahme Michael!

Arthur is gone...Tristam in Careol
Sleeps with a broken sword - And
Yseult sleeps besides him, where the westering waters roll
Over drowned Lyonesse to the outer deeps.

Lancelot is fallen...the ardent helms that shone
So knightly and the splintered lances rust
In the anonymous mould of Avalon:
Gawain and Gareth and Galahad - all are dust.

Where do the vanes and towers of Camelot
And tall Tintagel crumble? Where do those tragic
Lovers and their bright-eyed Ladies rot?
We cannot tell - for lost is Merlin's magic.

...

They were so few...We know not in what manner
Or where or when they fell...

But this we know: That, when the Saxon's rout
Swept over them, the sun no longer shone
On Britain, and the last lights flickered out;
And men in darkness murmured: Arthur is gone...

Excerpt from Francis Brett Young, Hic Jacet Arthurus Rex Quondam Rexque Futurus

Warum nicht, Platz für eine Burg wär ja da...

We're Knights of the Round Table.
We dance whene'er we're able.
We do routines and chorus scenes
With footwork impeccable.
We dine well here in Camelot.
We eat ham and jam and spam a lot.

Gr au B
