More about this scene
Pilton is famed for its pop festivals, which started in 1970. Its crossroads was known as Conduit Square because of an underground drainage system. The store was originally the White Hart Hotel, with a brewery behind, and the Crown Inn to its right was the tap room for the coachmen. The post office was opposite.
