This is the famous Glastonbury Thorn, or at least I was PROMISED it. Too bad this one is a FRAUD! Yes! I know! FRAUD! I was promised the Glastonbury Thorn, which is the thorn that was planted by Joseph of Arimathea, but this isn't it. The original one is one the Tor. But I took a picture none-the-less of one of the thorns.
Oh, King Arthur was supposedly burried here along with his Queen. Monks supposedly found their bodies in the 12th century. They dug them up and moved them. I don't know if this where they found them or where they moved them to... it was never quite clear. All I do know is that they are not there now.
Thomas Becket's Chapel... or what is left of up (top and bottom images).
