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 the Park at Liskeard


After visiting All Hallows the modern pilgrim must needs dash across London to Paddington and travel to Liskeard in Cornwall to the shrine of Our Lady of the Park.

My updated notes from last year can be read at Marian Pilgrimage - Our Lady of the Park in Liskeard

May Our Lady of the Park pray for Pope Leo XIV
