The 5 Best Points of Interest & Landmarks in Glastonbury, England

August 11, 2021 Leonarda Pillsbury

Generally a quiet place graced with lovely terrain for strolling, Glastonbury is very busy in the summer because of its music festival. Best known for contemporary music, the festival has attracted almost 200,000 people in recent years (whereas Glastonbury's full-time population is only 9,000 or so). There are a number of historical monuments to see in the area, including Glastonbury Lake Village, Glastonbury Abbey and the Somerset Rural Life Museum. We can't say that the weather is always good, but on a sunny day you can't go wrong!

Facets of Avalon

A wonderful mother and daughter working studio, displaying wire jewellery which is made on site, by Rachel Reilly and Multi Media Mosaics by Jan Billings . Commissions welcome

Reviewed By Belenore

I have never seen jewellery like this before. Rachel Reilly has developped her own technique of knitting enamelled copper wire turning it into incredible pieces of jewellery / pieces of art ... and even lamp shades. I could not resist and bought a pair of "ear wings".

You can just sit in the quiet or pray or chat to the priestess who are so lovely and welcoming. I was smudged and discovered my Deity there. I cannot say enough good things about this place
