The old man was of an inordinate age - He left a mound-lore (of the Tor) Perhaps mostly of fragile gossip, yet it was food for thought. "It is the only hillock around Summerset, and considered quite old... A manmade structure, once known as Avalon, which had a moat of water surrounding it... !" My start was timid- I carried a handbag, field glasses, a steel pistol, strong rope, incidentals for emergencies, and a trench-knife, along with a heavy battery-operated flashlight- To those who knew me, I was set out for a certain doom. At one time, the mound, or Tor-during the 10th Century A.D., was known for its expression of infinite evil. Although I could not concur with this. At present there was a slight decadence to the ancient long-rounded- mound, with striking features, as I did my surveying and orbiting by foot to its perimeter- Hence, convincing me it was an artificial tumulus (perchance dating as far back to the days of the Neanderthal, if not proto-Neanderthal, or some intergalactic alien burial grounds, like Stone Heap of the Wildcat, in the Golan Heights of Israel).
