From Dover, we headed westward, to the historical coastal village of Tintagel, in Cornwall. This place is magical ! Legend has it that this was the birthplace of King Arthur, of Round Table fame...
 
Info about recent archaeological digs at the site can be found here.
 
The village...
 
 
Souvenir shop. The steep pathway on the left leads down to the castle....
 
 
... but we were too early. It didn't open until 10am, so we explored a little...
 
 
... and sampled the local wares. Mmmmm... Cornish pasties for elevenses... at 9.30am !
 
(Mine was of the vegetarian variety, of course !)
