This handsome medieval Gothic church was almost converted into a house during the 1980s. Thankfully, we were able to step in and preserve this church for future generations with the help of local supporters. 1/9

I had the immense privilege of viewing the mortal remains of St. Francis of Assisi tonight before they open to the public for veneration tomorrow. If you are seeing this post, I prayed for you with the relics of St. Francis.

St Margaret of Antioch Church, with a sneaky peek of Durham Cathedral. The church is C12 or so and the C15 tower houses three bells, two of which are medieval. #steeplesaturday #durham #england

St. Michael’s Church at Alnwick in Northumberland. The west tower and church are mostly 15th century in date when the church was largely rebuilt following financial support from Henry VI. 📸 #SteepleSaturday #Alnwick #Northumberland
