An interesting statement - especially in light of recent events!Until recently, what remains of that blackened olive wood up has been kept at
Nantoes - now many seek in vain; may it soon be restored to the only rightful place for its
keeping, Glastonbury Abbey, from whence it came.

Also an interesting statement. What kind of "move" I wonder? By whom?"... but there is currently a move afoot to have the Nanteos Cup returned to Glastonbury..."
