| Glastonbury Tor, Somerset UK - N2. Sights, Places of Interest, Monuments and Landmarks of Somerset, UK.
Located in the Somerset Levels, more specifically on a plain known as Summerland Meadows, this impressive 500ft hill reaches back into the mists of time.
Located in Glastonbury; Glastonbury Tor is today under the stewardship of the National Trust. Tor is a word of Celtic origin meaning conical hill. Glastonbury Tor is synonymous with myths and legends and many stories surround this ancient site, believed by some to be an entrance to a land of fairies, others make connections with the legendary King Arthur and some Grail seekers believe that the Holy Grail can be found within its boundaries.
There can be no doubt that this is a unique place; there have been numerous reports of strange and unexplained experiences whilst being on the Tor, including many accounts of a sensation of a slight shifting in the world. Others are certain they have spotted UFO’s in the skies around the Tor. Sightings are reported to have taken place both during the daytime and in the evening.
