A new £4m footbridge linking a 13th Century castle to the mainland has been opened.

The new footbridge to Cornwall's Tintagel Castle had been due to open on Friday but due to high winds it was delayed until Sunday.

Tintagel Castle gained literary fame when Geoffrey of Monmouth named it as the place King Arthur was conceived.

The 13th Century castle has about 250,000 visitors each year.
