This group of buildings dates back to around the 11th Century, when Glastonbury was a major pilgrimage destination. It was at first a Hospital for up to 13 sick men with a Chapel (all paid for by Queen Margaret of Scotland). Two rows of Men’s Almshouses replaced the Hospital in the 16th Century, but one row was demolished in the 1960s – its foundations are under the garden. The Mary and Margaret Charity completed a large refurbishment and repair programme in 2012, including a new stone courtyard wall and disabled access WC, and a new West garden. https://www.stmargaretschapel.org.uk/the-history/

Good walk. Plenty of sheep so dogs may need leads if prone to being excited by sheep.

Glastonbury Tor has long since been iconic as a scenic viewpoint. The Tor is a grand tower with outstanding views out over the surrounding countryside. Nowhere is this more prevalent than half way up the Tor, where the steps lead you like a concrete snake up to the Tor. The Tor is ahead of you and Glastonbury is behind you, simply an outstanding viewpoint.

This is on the side of the old Tollgate opposite the entrance to the Tor

Lollover Hill with its trigpoint at 90m isn't massively high but it's position on the edge of the Somerset levels means it offers 360 views. There is a nice trail up to and around the hill which is nice for a short walk, or you can combine it with nearby Wildlife Trust managed Dundon Hill.

Dundon Hill or Dundon Beacon is a Iron Age hill fort and nature haven. Managed by the Somerset Wildlife Trust this small area of higher land is ringed by ancient oak woodland and capped with a meadow. The views from the southern end of the plateau are far reaching across the levels where you get a gap in the trees.

Collard Hill is owned and managed by the National Trust, it's free to access with no facilities. The NT opened this area in partnership with the Large Blue butterfly conservation group as this is one of the very few areas that you might see this rare butterfly. The grassy hillside is a great place to walk with trees to the north and vast views across the Somerset levels in the south.
