As it is a Bank Holiday, here is a view of St. Michael's Tower on top of Glastonbury Tor, which I visited on a short break last week. At about 500 feet high, the tor has a 360 degree view over the Somerset Levels and supposedly the landscape of the Isle of Avalon. There is even a local connection! As we all know, King Arthur was born in Wantage in about 849, but the legend about him burning the cakes is thought to have originated 30 years later in Athelney. This is on the Somerset Levels just a few miles from Glastonbury Tor.
