Could King Arthur, the legendary leader of the Britons in the sixth century, have set up camp with his Knights of the Round Table in Brigg?
This fascinating question has been raised in a newly-published booked called the The Anglo Saxon Kingdom of Lindsey.Author Dr Kevin Leahy has staked North Lincolnshire's claim to a share in the Arthurian legend after spending 30 years researching his book.
This is Scunthorpe

Could Kevin, the legendary Museums officer of North Lincs in the late twentieth century have set up with his publisher a free bit of publicity by making up erroneous popularist claims in order to sell a rather dull book?
