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.

Marian Pilgrimage - Our Lady of All Hallows Barking by the Tower


Returning to London the Pilgrimage now goes to All Hallows Barking by the Tower. This was another addition I made to the original itinerary and which has a reasonably well documented history as I set out last year in Our Lady of All Hallows Barking by the Tower

As I indicate in that article the church has a fascinating history and much of interest for the visitor to see, and I would certainly recommend a visit. 

Our Lady of All Hallows Barking by the Tower Pray for us
