to Glastonbury
Glastonbury
is a small town in Somerset, England, situated at a dry point on the
low lying Somerset Levels, 19 miles south west of Radstock, 25 miles south west
of Bath and 30 miles south of Bristol. Glastonbury, which is in the Mendip
district, has a population of 8,784. Glastonbury
is less than 1 mile across the River Brue from the village of Street.
Evidence from timber trackways such as the Sweet Track show that Glastonbury has been inhabited since
Neolithic times. Glastonbury Lake
Village was an Iron Age village, close to the old course of the River
Brue and Sharpham Park approximately 2 miles west of Glastonbury, dates back to the
Bronze Age. Centwine was the first Saxon patron of Glastonbury Abbey, which dominated
the town for the next 700 years. One of the most important abbeys in
England, Glastonbury Abbey was
the site of Edmund Ironside's coronation as King of England in 1016.
Many of the oldest surviving buildings in Glastonbury, including the Tribunal,
George Hotel and Pilgrims' Inn and the Somerset Rural Life Museum,
which is based in an old tithe barn, are associated with the abbey. The
Church of St John the Baptist dates from the 15th century.
Glastonbury
became a centre for commerce, which led to the construction of the
market cross, Glastonbury
Canal and the Glastonbury and
Street railway station, the largest station on the original Somerset
and Dorset Joint Railway. The Brue Valley Living Landscape is a
conservation project managed by the Somerset Wildlife Trust and nearby
is the Ham Wall National Nature Reserve.
Glastonbury has been
described as a New Age community which attracts people with New Age
beliefs, and is notable for myths and legends often related to Glastonbury Tor, concerning Joseph
of Arimathea, the Holy Grail and King Arthur. In some Arthurian
literature Glastonbury is
identified with the legendary island of Avalon. Joseph is said to have
arrived in Glastonbury and
stuck his staff into the ground, when it flowered miraculously into the
Glastonbury Thorn. The
presence of a landscape zodiac around the town has been suggested,
along with a collection of ley lines, but no evidence has been
discovered. Glastonbury
Festival takes its name from the town but is actually held in the
nearby village of Pilton.
