King Arthur's Castle Hotel was built in 1899. The
Cornish National Trust was formed at this time as they were not happy with
the position of the Hotel. However thank goodness they did not have a say
in any planning decision!.
The photo on the left was taken in 1902 and in 2000 on the right
The photograph on the left was
taken around the 1900s and it was coloured later. Youngsters can be seen
at the site today of Celtic Crafts and King Arthur's Arms had been built.
The Wooton's Hotel is seen in the distance. Today's photo was taken in 2000
The 14th Century Cottage is now a 14th Century Gift Shop
In the 1940s/50s the photo on
the left shows the home of Mr. & Mrs. Bishop. The couple waving were
probably associated with the delivery van in the picture. A house has been
changed to a restaurant and today it is called the Crossbow Restaurant.
There were many Chapels in the 1800s. Many have
been changed to homes and this Chapel was converted early in the 20th
Century. Today it is the home of Bruce & Barbara Old, as well as the
Hardware Shop in Tintagel Before this it was a Grocery Store owned by Mr.
Ferrett.
The coloured photo on the left shows Old Houses. The
building still stands and it is the home today of Roger & Angela
Gabriel. It was the Dangar family home for many years and I can remember
buying ice creams from the window on the left. Minnie & Mildred Dangar
lived here for many years.
