You are so cool for having done that Spock! Aren't Arthur and Guinevere supposed to be buried at Glatonsbury? Guinevere makes sense, because didn't she retire to a nunnery after Camlann (where is the battle site?)? However, Arthur can't possibly have a grave anywhere in normal ordinary England, he has to be buried at Avalon!

ACTUALLY, according to my research, he was buried at Avalon-if you ever view Glastonbury Tor in the early morning from a distance, with a mist around it..it is Avalon! Very mystical indeed. The battle site of Camlann is in a farmers field. You have to know where to go as it's not marked from the roadway. I walked in and searched about for an hr. before finding the marker. Research really pays off. :-)

Tintagel is a blast. With "merlins cave" underneath and a chamber that lead from the top of Tintagel down into that cave, there is good reason to hold it as "the site". I even managed to conquer my vertigo to climb up there...it was well worth my pain.
