Art Deco in Glastonbury

Only minor deco but a bit surprising to see any at all.

The stand out was Boots. The tiles are classic deco:-

Earthfare has rule of three in upper windows which are possibly Critall. I suspect this is a former Woolworths:-

Glastonbury

Not the music festival, the town.

On leaving Wells we saw a sign that said Glastonbury 8. We thought if we’re so close we might as well have a look.

We pulled up outside a bookshop.  Sadly it was full of Tarot, mysticism, incense and all sorts of woo.

The whole town was a bit like that.

There was some nice old architecture. This is now a pub, though:-
