Once I was a clever boy learning the arts of Oxford... is a quotation from the verses written by Bishop Richard Fleming (c.1385-1431) for his tomb in Lincoln Cathedral. Fleming, the founder of Lincoln College in Oxford, is the subject of my research for a D. Phil., and, like me, a son of the West Riding. I have remarked in the past that I have a deeply meaningful on-going relationship with a dead fifteenth century bishop... it was Fleming who, in effect, enabled me to come to Oxford and to learn its arts, and for that I am immensely grateful.

Our Lady on the Red Mount King’s Lynn


The penultimate visit on the virtual Marian
Pilgrimage is to the chapel of Our Lady on the Red Mount in King’s Lynn. 

This is one of a number of churches and buildings in this historic town which are important survivors from the ecclesiastical life of this important medieval port. I wrote about the chapel last year in Our Lady of the Mount King’s Lynn

Our Lady on the Red Mount Pray for us
