The Chalice Well Trust
In the serene landscape between two iconic hills, the Tor and Chalice Hill, lies the ancient Chalice Well in Glastonbury, Somerset. This sacred Spring, steeped in history, gracefully emerges from the valley floor. Adorned by lush gardens in the Summerland’s, it was in this very setting that Tennison found inspiration to pen, 'The island valley of Avalon, where falls not hail, or rain, or any snow.' Well known by water diviners and specialists, the Spring is said to originate 'primarily' from the depths of the earth, adding to its mystical allure.
