About

Glastonbury ward covers the town of Glastonbury and its immediate rural surroundings. The area is centred on the notable landmark of Glastonbury Tor, a hill with a ruined tower that rises from the Somerset Levels. The town's streets are lined with independent shops, many reflecting its association with spiritual and alternative lifestyles. The surrounding landscape is largely agricultural, characterised by flat, drained wetlands used for pasture.

The ward contains the historic ruins of Glastonbury Abbey, a site of medieval pilgrimage. A network of natural springs, including the Chalice Well, feeds streams that flow through the town. The local economy combines tourism with traditional industries. Annual events, such as the Glastonbury Festival, are staged just outside the ward's boundary at Worthy Farm in Pilton.
