Dye House Lane Crossing

Although all trace of Glastonbury Station has vanished, a reminder of the railway's course is to be seen close to the A39 roundabout near the Glastonbury factory estate. The new bypass, in fact, uses the course of the old railway around the town.Here a new set of gates have been erected at the point where the track crossed Dye House Lane. The ironwork from the original trackbed is visible in the roadway.
