The Star Temple Of Avalon

Nicholas Mann and Philippa Glasson reveal the site of an ancient astronomical observatory at the heart of the Avalonian landscape. They show how prehistoric sky-watchers appear to have modelled key parts of the island, including the Tor, to refine their celestial observations.

“The prehistoric astronomy of the area, as revealed in this book, elucidates much of the later history and many of the myths and legends that have accreted around the town’s famous Tor, its Abbey and the surrounding hills.
The information presented here places new pieces of the Avalon jigsaw in their correct position, offering the reader a richer and more meaningful history of this awesomely important place.” From the Foreword by Robin Heath, author of Sun, Moon and Stonehenge and Alexander Thom: Cracking the Stone Age Code.
