MenuKing Arthur's Hall, Cornwall
King Arthur's Hall is an ancient earthwork enclosure on King Arthur's Downs, near St Breward, Cornwall. It comprises a rectangular enclosure around 155ft by 65ft defined by an earth and stone bank. On the inside is a retaining wall of large stones. The stones, of which fifty six out of a possible one hundred and forty are still visible, are arranged like the backs of chairs, facing inwards from a steep-sided rectangular bank. A small area of paving is visible against the inside of the northern bank. It has been variously attributed to the Neolithic, as a Roman Camp, as early mediæval hundred drift pound and as an animal pound. The monument is within the council area of Cornwall.
