AdminHistory | Cadbury Castle is an Iron Age hill fort in the civil parish of South Cadbury in Somerset. Local tradition, first written down by John Leland in 1532, holds that Cadbury Castle was King Arthur's Camelot. An excavation at the site was led by archaeologist Leslie Alcock from 1966-1970. He identified a long sequence of occupation on the site and many of the finds are displayed in the Somerset County Museum in Taunton.
Wheeler was President of the Camelot Research Committee. |
