The legend lives on

Kastel Dintagel a' gas dynnergh.

 

Occupied since at least the late Roman period, Tintagel became a thriving Dark Age settlement and port.

In the 12th century, Geoffrey of Monmouth named it as the place where the legendary Arthur was conceived. It was almost certainly this link to the legendary hero that inspired Richard, Earl of Cornwall to build his castle here in 1230.
