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 Grace in Cambridge


The Marian Pilgrimage now travels east to the other ancient University city of Cambridge and the statue that was venerated in the Dominican friary there. The articles I wrote about this can be accessed by following the links to those earlier accounts in last year’s post at Marian Pilgrimage - Our Lady of Grace of Cambridge

Our Lady of Grace in Cambridge pray for The King and The Queen and for us all.
