King Arthur's Hall, Archaeological monument in Bodmin Moor, England

King Arthur's Hall consists of 56 granite stones arranged in a rectangular pattern, forming an earthwork enclosure measuring 48 meters by 20 meters.

Recent archaeological research revealed the site dates back to the Neolithic period, approximately 5,500 years ago, rather than the medieval era as previously believed.

The monument bears the name of the legendary King Arthur, reflecting the deep connection between Cornish landscape features and medieval British folklore.

Visitors can reach the site by following designated footpaths across Bodmin Moor, though sturdy walking boots are necessary due to the marshy terrain.

Scientific analysis of sediment cores from the site contains preserved pollen and insect remains that reveal information about ancient Cornish environmental conditions.
