markeee Posted August 9, 2012 Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 Possibly going on Saturday. Depending on the missus letting us stop! (she's fed up of me banging on about glastonbury) off to the tor as well seeing as I haven't been in a while and live so local I feel I owe a visit. I'll take some photos to share don't worry Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Yoghurt on a Stick Posted August 9, 2012 Report Share Posted August 9, 2012 the railway line embankment across the site is still a public Right of Way. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bathimp Posted August 10, 2012 Report Share Posted August 10, 2012 I would be surprised if the railway line is still a public right of way. I think the festival has carefully expanded to the limits of the boundaries of rights of way over recent years and the super fence couldn't get much bigger without cutting across one. That being said the locals did advise me to use the railway line as a good way of visiting the site. At the West end there is a lane cutting across it and you can climb a gate opposite a house that has been built slap bang in the middle of the line. Very odd. I would always ask the festival office for permission though before using the railway line and treat it as private land. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

markeee Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 I've just managed to load a photo that was on my computer (lord knows how I managed to get it on there in the first place as I'm a complete technophobe) onto the image shack site.

Yoghurt on a Stick Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 Once you've uploaded the photo it should give you a number of links, forum code link/direct link etc on the page that appears after successfully uploading an image Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
eFestivals Posted August 16, 2012 Report Share Posted August 16, 2012 you don't need imageshack. You can upload photos to the galleries attached to these forums (there's a nice big link/button at the top of the page). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gnomicide Posted August 18, 2012 Report Share Posted August 18, 2012 Stopped of in Glastonbury town a couple of weeks ago, lovely place, great to see a town center with so few corporate names. Didn't go to the festival site but climbed the Tor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bathimp Posted August 25, 2012 Report Share Posted August 25, 2012 Here is a picture of the much debated railway line looking toward Steanbow near Gate D. And here is a shot of the Pyramid from Worthy Lane taken Saturday 23rd June 2012. One of the best views in the world! Hope the uploads work this time. Thanks for all the guidance.

Somerset Boy Posted September 1, 2012 Report Share Posted September 1, 2012 (edited) there are public foot paths that go around the site that you can walk on any time outside of the festival period. Look on our excellent village website for the routes: http://www.piltonvil.../Footpaths.html Edited September 1, 2012 by Somerset Boy Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
