Council of British Druid Orders information


The 2005 mid-summer festival at Stonehenge

The Council of British Druid Orders is a neo-pagan group established in 1989 which was originally formed to facilitate ceremonies at Stonehenge.[1] The council's founder, Tim Sebastion, used the title "Archdruid of Wiltshire, Chosen Chief of the Secular Order of Druids, Conservation Officer for the Council of British Druid Orders and Bard of the Gorsedd of Caer Abiri (Avebury)."[2]

COBDO represents some sixteen British Druid Orders, and Stonehenge celebrations are still its main concern. Following the passing of Tim Sebastion, the main figures within COBDO are Rollo Maughling and Arthur Uther Pendragon, leader of the Loyal Arthurian Warband. The main website for COBDO has expanded beyond coverage of Stonehenge to provide a general description of Druidry as a spiritual faith.[3]
