Inside Beckford's Tower
This is the viewing room at the top of Beckford's Tower near Bath, England. See the beefy-looking pillar to the right of the picture? The secret staircase to the roof is inside there. As described in 'Heyday'. #notquitelost

You Are Not Morgana and I Am Not Merlin. #notquitelost Nimue: She met Merlin when aged 16. He was deeply smitten. Legends say she traded her love for lessons in sorcery, or tiring of him, turned one of his own spells against him, sealing him in a cave forever. Or trapping him in a Hawthorn tree where his voice is still heard. Other tales have him in confinement until his death or descent into madness. The Lady Of The Lake, Mists Of Avalon, Roi Arthur, Lady Of The Lake, Arthurian Legend, Warrior Princess, Arte Fantasy
