About

Glastonbury Town is centred around the High Street, which slopes gently towards the foot of the famous Glastonbury Tor. The area is defined by its independent shops, cafes, and historic buildings, many with medieval origins. The ruins of Glastonbury Abbey, a site of ancient Christian pilgrimage, form a significant green space at the town's heart.

A network of quieter lanes and pathways radiates from the main thoroughfares, leading to residential areas and the Somerset Levels beyond. The annual Glastonbury Festival takes place several miles away at Worthy Farm, but the town itself maintains a steady, year-round character focused on its own deep history and spiritual significance.
