King Arthur's Hall news

There is also good news!!! Tom Stephenson has been ill and is now recovering, thanks to his partner for keeping us up to date.  Whilst wishing a Happy Birthday to a long ago friend from the prehistoric side of my past. I stumbled on the great news that King Arthur's Hall on Bodmin Moor is prehistoric in its date.  So to an old friend who I feel is no longer around, Roy Goutte.  Roy it was your nagging that did it and I remember the wonderful time Paul and I had when you took us around your part of Cornwall.

Of course King Arthur's Hall was prehistoric, the arrangement of a square was unusual, may have in fact been rearranged in medieval times but those stones had a reason to be there, with a tor of course always in sight

Roy, Paul and Paul's cousin and husband


Me being pulled up? Note one of Roy's sheepdog at his side.  Roy trained sheepdogs and I think one even went out to Australia Andrew!


I remember being so excited about this place

  1. I was rarely in photos as I was the one with the lens, I guess it was a photo you took. So we don't see you.

  2. Yes Andrew but I found one from the same time. I am never tidy, my hair being a problem, so don't like to appear too much ;)

  3. You have certainly had so many adventures in your life, Thelma! You know about so many things that I have never even heard of before! I'm sure you have mentioned it before but I forget how you got so interested in ancient places and things...

  4. I have quickly browsed through the two attachments. I am excited too! To have something to come back to read later when I have time to really think on it. That neat 'square' is very evocative...even in a picture. I cannot imagine the magic of seeing it in real life.
