A fuller picture of the scale of this building tells us that Glastonbury was high up the spiritual ladder |
You can still sense the magic and awe that this place once inspired |
The fish ponds are fed from what I presume are the same springs that emerge from under The Tor |
Glastonbury Abbey was destroyed by Henry 8th's Reformation in the 1500's. The unfortunate Bishop was hung from The Tor tower that overlooks the surrounding area. A very macabre end !
The Carp above were in the abbey ponds, and were more than happy to be fed bread ect..
( cant get these photo's to line up. Grrrrrr ! )
