LONDON, Aug. 28 (UPI) -- Archaeologists studying Britain's royal residences say they found the building linked to the Arthurian legend of the knights of the round table.
A circular structure built by Edward III in the 14th century has been uncovered in the quadrangle of Windsor Castle by members of Channel 4's "Time Team," the Independent reported Monday.
"The round table building is one of our most significant ever archaeological finds," "Time Team" host Tony Robinson said. "It is something that helped to establish Arthurian legends of the knights of the round table."
Robinson said experts have speculated about the existence of such a structure for centuries but have never been able to find the actual building.
The "Time Team" has previously discovered treasures at Buckingham Palace in London and Holyroodhouse in Scotland.
