The supposed burial place of King Arthur, although the stones predate the legend by a few thousand years. But don't let the truth get in the way of a good story! That said, sites of importance have been reused throughout the ages, so you never know. Regardless, what a place!

According to folklore, Bedd Arthur (meaning ‘Arthur’s Grave’) marks the final resting place of King Arthur. However, the stone circle has now been dated to the late Neolithic period, meaning the stones were erected many centuries beforehand. The area has a very special atmosphere and boasts exceptional views.
