Marian Pilgrimage - Our Lady of Howden, of Stamford and of Flawford

Today the pilgrimage takes in three medieval statues of Our Lady which doubtless attracted devotional prayer in the later medieval centuries, but which were not, as far as an be seen, the focus of a particular cultus.

My posts about them from last year and others from earlier years can be accessed from Marian Pilgrimage - Our Lady of Howden, of Stamford,  and of Flawford

 There is more about the statues at The Flawford Alabasters and at Flawford - Features and Fittings. There is an online video about an academic study leading to a reconstruction of the original painted decoration of the statue, and that is a revelation. It can be viewed at Re-imagining the Flawford Virgin

 May Our Lady of Howden, Our Lady of Stamford and Our Lady of Flawford intercede for us and our intentions

Jesu mercy, Mary pray
