“The Trek to the Tor”
|
 |
Glastonbury Tor lies outside of town, and from the top
you can see miles and miles of farmland and villages.
A solitary, abandoned church tower remains atop the Tor
now, but at one time it was part of a church that, like
the Abbey, fell victim to Henry VIII.
The Tor itself has been home to Gwyn ap Nudd, the fairy
Lord of the Underworld. It is also the starting point
for the Overland Mallet Club’s annual Glastonbury
Trounce.
We sat atop the hill for awhile, taking in the view and
feeling the exhilirating wind and refreshing sunshine
on our faces, before beginning the long walk down. Next
stop, Avebury.
