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 ;-)

    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...

    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
