Ruin of St Michael's Church on Glastonbury tor

Ruin of St Michael's Church on Glastonbury tor
St Michael's Church survived until the Dissolution of the Monasteries in 1539 when, except for the tower, it was demolished.
It remains a place of pilgrimage for some. Near the base of the tor when we had walked back down, there were lots of tourists walking up , including 2 women who had taken off their shoes in order to walk on the hallowed ground!

It was a pilgrimage place long long ago.. hence some still treat it as such.

It can be seen from afar, but only close up you can appreciate the details. I found the druids and New Agers in Glastonbury amusing;-)
