My little pictorial of how glastonbury has evolved over the last 50 years.. From hippies and the traveler's field to the fence and type of people who go and how they camp.... 

There were loads of great pictures to choose from so I hope I chose the best to tell the story..

That’s a really interesting observation, the first three photos are old and litter free, behaviours have changed over the years for the worse by the looks of it. 
 

I guess it’s partly due to the disposable nature of society now, throw-away packaging and so forth. Sad to see how it has worsened so much.

remember that bank of payphones that used to be at the bottom of the Pyramid field just on the corner by the main drag, and how early over the festival there would be massive queues waiting to use them... be interesting if there are any photos of that knocking about somewhere..
