Abstract

This chapter delves into the complex relationship between law and place, using Pomparles Bridge in Glastonbury as a case study. It explores how place is not a static entity but a dynamic process shaped by various factors, including legal measures and historical narratives. The text highlights the role of myths and legends in place-making, particularly the Arthurian legends associated with Glastonbury. It also examines the impact of legal measures like Public Space Protection Orders on place-making, focusing on their exclusionary effects. The chapter concludes by discussing the possibilities for a more inclusive and just approach to place-making that acknowledges the complexity and multiplicity of place.
