Twice I have visited Glastonbury, both for the festival and I loved it. As for the history, from the 15th century St Michael's Tower on it's stupendous summit to the Iron Age settlement in the fens surrounding the Tor - fabulous is the term I'd use. Some day soon, I'll visit this county! A beautiful shot! Take another in the Spring please! I'd love to see it then. ^=^

Kind of a spooky air. Kind of expect Golem to appear, or perhaps Frodo and Sam. Nice capture.

To think that this is how all of the surrounding land must have appeared. It is no surprise that it, isolated and standing tall in the rising mists, must have appeared a magical place, the original Inis Avallach.
