Glastonbury Tor, Somerset

Today we’re exploring the myth and history nestled in the English county of Somerset. And what better place to discover the ancient past than Glastonbury, a site where Pagans and Christians alike have worshipped through the ages, and both groups still do today. Glastonbury Tor is the striking hill on the horizon, and the lonely tower is the last vestige of the 14th-century church of St Michael, which was built to replace a wooden church toppled by an earthquake in 1275.
