1970: GLASTONBURY TOR and the AGE OF AQUARIUS | Look Stranger | Weird and Wonderful | BBC Archive

Glastonbury Tor as a place of significant and powerful magnetism is celebrated in this film which traces a line from the dawn of the Christian era through to the hippies making pilgrimages there at the time.
We hear from local resident John Shelly, a potter who lives nearby who attests to its spiritual power and architect Keith Critchlow who talks about his own research into the site.
Originally broadcast on 24 September, 1970.
