King Arthur's Hall

This is a megalithic enclosure, a late Neolithic or early Bronze Age ceremonial site on Bodmin Moor. It's called 'King Arthur's Hall' because the legendary king may have frequented it. Covering an area of 47 metres by 20, 56 standing stones are still visible (there may once have been 140). They were erected against steep rectangular banks. Because of these banks and the tall grasses it isn't easy to get a good shot of the stones. Rough Tor can be seen in the distance.
