Join me on 11th May 2025 at Arthur’s Stone, near Hereford in South Wales.
This Neolithic chambered tomb, over 5,000 years old, is part of a remarkable chain of prehistoric monuments in the upper Golden Valley. Formed from nine upright stones and once covered by an earthen mound, it’s steeped in legend — said to be King Arthur’s final resting place, where he fought a rival king or slew a giant.
