Time Team Special: The Real King Arthur

Inside the castle at Tintagel. Excavations in the 1930s suggested that the only pre-medieval structures on the headland were of a monastic site. More recent excavations, however, suggested that there may have been a much larger structure here – possibly even a castle from the time of the historical Arthur (5th–6th century AD)
