EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the ruins of The Abbots Kitchen in Glastonbury, Somerset, a testament to the grandeur and opulence of medieval monastic life. The abbot of Glastonbury once kept great state in this impressive kitchen, which is now preserved as one of the best surviving medieval kitchens in Europe. Dating back to the early 14th century, the kitchen was part of the magnificent Abbots House, built under Abbot John de Breynton (1334-42). The four huge fireplaces at the corners of the kitchen provide a striking contrast against the moss-covered stone walls, offering a glimpse into the daily life of the monks who once resided here. The kitchen was not only a place for preparing meals but also served as a social and communal space where the monks gathered to share meals and engage in conversation. Despite the passage of time and the eventual dissolution of the monastery during the Reformation, The Abbots Kitchen remains an intriguing reminder of Glastonbury's rich history. It is the only substantial monastic building that has survived at the site, making it an invaluable treasure for historians, archaeologists, and anyone interested in the Middle Ages. The intricate stonework, the massive fireplaces, and the sense of history that permeates the air make The Abbots Kitchen a must-visit destination for anyone exploring the beautiful county of Somerset. This photograph invites us to imagine the hustle and bustle of the kitchen in its heyday, as the monks prepared meals for their community and upheld the traditions of their faith.
