At the end there's a small chapel dated same time as the abbey. Glastonbury Tor is known as being one of the most spiritual sites in the country. If you visit in the summer months, take a tour with a costumed guide wholl teach you the history and show you where King Arthur is believed to be buried. Take in the romantic ruins and peaceful parkland. On the opposite side of the road to the Abbey ruins, just down the slope from the mini-roundabout (leading to Street)lies a narrow passage way. Walk the ruined Abbey and admire the view from the Tor. Unfortunately, some vicious vandal cut the tree down not so long ago, but there is a Holy Thorn in the grounds of St John's Church and it does flower at Christmas. Similar sense of spiritual peace prevails on Wearyall to that of the Tor. Next time you pay visit to Glastonbury don't miss the chance to walk on Wearyall Hill, where Joseph of Aramathea purportedly struck his staff to the ground and thence a holy thorn grew: the original one.
