#Arthur’s Stone

[notallthosewho-wanderarelost]

And according to the website Mysterious Britain, Arthur's Stone was C.S. Lewis' inspiration for the "stone table" where Aslan the Lion was sacrificed in his "Narnia" stories.

Arthur's Stone is a fabulous pre-historic monument, a Neolithic burial chamber made of great stone slabs with a huge cap stone weighing some 25tonnes that has cracked in half. Set in the hills above Herefordshire's Golden Valley which is rich in prehistoric archaeology.

Like many prehistoric monuments in western England and Wales, this tomb has been linked to King Arthur since before the 13th century. According to legend, it was here that Arthur slew a giant who left the impression of his elbows on one of the stones as he fell.

It has recently been excavated by archaeologists for the very first time (the dig was featured on Digging for Britain on the BBC 2023) and I can’t wait to read the results.

It is free to visit and is owned and managed by English Heritage.

This was supposed to just be a rough sketch, but then I started getting really invested in it.

I hadn't initially intended to include so many picture book characters, but the nostalgia was overwhelming. Does anyone remember the animated short films produced by Weston Woods? My local library used to have a bunch of them on the Scholastic VHS tapes from the late 90s. (I know some shorts were released on the Children's Circle VHS tapes back in the 80s (🎶 Come on along! Come on along! Join the caravan!), and some were packaged in Sammy's Story Shop in 2008.)
