A little history
Castle Cary is the nearest railway station to the Glastonbury Festival site — every June the town is transformed as festival-goers pass through. The barrel-shaped lock-up on the market square dates from 1779 and is one of the most photographed village curiosities in Somerset. The town has been a market centre for south Somerset since medieval times.
The round house lock-up in the market square is extraordinary. The George Hotel is a lovely Somerset coaching inn. The Friday market for local produce. In Glastonbury Festival week the town is lively beyond all recognition.
