A beautiful place to walk, with a choice of long or short routes, offering panoramic views... Bedd Arthur, or Arthur's Grave, is one of many sites claimed to be the final resting place of King Arthur. Thought to be from the neolithic period, the sub rectangular or horseshoe enclosure is 18m by 7m. Consisting of thirteen upright stones, at least 2 fallen stones and has a barely visible oval bank and ditch. According to Coflein - "Survey work by Wainwright and Darvill for the SPACES project has compared the oval stone setting at Bedd Arthur to the first oval setting of Bluestone orthostats built at Stonehenge. Oval stone settings are a recognised form of monument in the Neolithic and Bronze Ages of Britain, but remain rare. Such arrangements of stones are also found at a site known as the 'Churchyard' on Skomer Island, and were adopted at Stonehenge, for which and Bedd Arthur has been speculatively suggested as a prototype."
