Took the dog for a walk here on a beautiful sunny day. Was playing ball with him and got a right telling off from one of the staff for such frivolity on consecrated ground. I was told the dog should be on a lead. When I pointed out he was on a Police dog lead that allowed me to control him yet offered a degree of freedom, I was told that despite what it said on the website that obviously dogs should be on short leads and not long ones. I prayed to God to forgive this man. It started to rain. I still like the Abbey and I still walk my dog here. We don't play on King Art's grave any more. It's not as much fun. Several men who live in Glastonbury claim to be the reincarnation of Arthur. They all told me they don't mind me having fun. The Abbey says their claims haven't been...

The tomb of King Arthur is always questionable but the Abbey ruins have a special energy. Most older spiritual building were erected on energy points. There are loads in Glastonbury some better than others. The Abbey grounds are a calm space when the rest of the town is in chaos. Where most of the building have been striped to the foundations for the reuse of stone, you can only get a feel of the power this place once held. They hold lots of events in the grounds over the year from medieval shows to concerts and plays. The museum is quite interesting and the little Chapel has amazing acoustics. On a sunny day take your time to walk round the whole of the grounds and get transported to a...

Glastonbury Abbey is somewhere I only discovered in 2020 even though I live quite close. Its quickly become one if my favourite places as it is a wonderful place to relax and the environment is just so peaceful. Set over 35 acres, there is room for lots of people without it feeling over crowded. Great for photos, picnics and learning about the lifestyle of the monks that used to live there. The staff are pleasant, welcoming, knowledgeable and always happy to chat. The little cafe there serves a variety of teas, coffees, snacks and ice creams. Dogs are welcome on lead. The gift shop has a beautiful range of gifts to suit everyone's budget. ...

A lovely place to visit if you are local and have a yearly pass but for the one off visit the entrance ticket is pricey, dog friendly as long as they are on lead and connected to a human. The paths are great no muddy walks around, allow at least an hour but if its a one off visit allow a good 2 to 3 hours and then pop up to the Tor on the hill. Don't believe all you read on the signs the Monks were well known for not telling the truth and they even hung a Bishop at the Tor, it's always been a place to draw in the pilgrims, l certainly don't half of it!

Volgens sommige door historici min of meer betrouwbaar geachte bronnen was Arthur een Romano-Britse legeraanvoerder die tijdelijk een halt toeriep aan de veroveringen van de Angelsaksen in het Brittannië van de zesde eeuw, nadat de Romeinse legioenen die provincie hadden verlaten. Van Arthur wordt beweerd dat hij meerdere slagen heeft gewonnen tegen de Saksen, waarvan de slag bij Mons Badonicus de bekendste is. Zeker is dat rond deze tijd inderdaad een heropleving van de Britse (tegenover de Angelsaksische) macht in Engeland plaatsvond; hoeveel daarvan aan Arthur moet worden toegeschreven, is echter niet meer dan giswerk. Sommigen identificeren Arthur met ene Riothamus, een "Bretonse koning" die tijdens de regering van Anthemius leefde. Helaas is over Riothamus weinig bekend; het is zelfs niet zeker of "Bretonse koning" refereert aan een koning van Brittannië of van Armorica; de oude naam van Bretagne. Andere historici stellen dat er geen bewijs is dat Arthur daadwerkelijk heeft bestaan. Zo zijn er geen eigentijdse bronnen die hem noemen (maar bronnen uit deze periode zijn sowieso vrijwel afwezig). Veelal wordt als argument aangehaald dat een andere Romeinse Brit, misschien Ambrosius Aurelianus, de leider was in de oorlog tegen de Saksen in de slag bij Mons Badonicus. Deze historici stellen dat Arthur gebaseerd kan zijn op Lucius Artorius Castus, een Romein uit de tweede eeuw, of een halfvergeten Keltische godheid.
