Welcome to Asney

Asney Somerset is a small town located in the county of Somerset, England. The town is situated on the River Brue and is surrounded by beautiful countryside. Asney Somerset is known for its historic buildings, including the Grade I listed St. Mary's Church, which dates back to the 12th century. The town also has a number of shops, restaurants, and pubs, making it a popular destination for tourists.

One of the main attractions in Asney Somerset is the Glastonbury Tor, which is located just a few miles outside of the town. The Tor is a hill that rises 158 meters above sea level and is topped by the ruins of St. Michael's Church. The Tor is steeped in history and legend, and is said to be the site of King Arthur's tomb. Visitors can climb to the top of the Tor and enjoy stunning views of the surrounding countryside.

Another popular attraction in Asney Somerset is the Chalice Well, which is located in the town of Glastonbury. The Chalice Well is a natural spring that is said to have healing properties. The well is surrounded by beautiful gardens and is a peaceful and tranquil place to visit. Visitors can also explore the nearby Glastonbury Abbey, which was once one of the richest and most powerful monasteries in England. The abbey was destroyed during the Dissolution of the Monasteries in the 16th century, but the ruins are still an impressive sight.
