The conclusion of a pilgrimage to Walsingham - three days, fifty-six miles, and a very many hundreds of prayers. ‘Faith of our Fathers! Holy Faith! We will be true to thee till death!

The chapel, Castle Howard. In it's current form, dating to the 1870s, it is a temple to the arts and crafts and pre-Raphaelite movements. Which, in a building so informed by Baroque and later (in this wing) Palladian designs, contrasts better than expected.

The King’s Men, of the Choir of Kings’s College Cambridge, gracing the New Chapel this morning. Spiffing and uplifting I say!

A distant and blurred photograph of Dover Castle, illuminated and joined by a full and bright moon. A beacon welcoming me homeward.

Happy and holy Solemnity of St Peter & St Paul. ‘Twas but a month ago that I ventured to St Paul’s outside the Walls and then to St Peter’s. Of the latter, we enjoyed unparalleled views, from a Curia roof terrace and as the last out from a 6pm mass, bookended by sunset.

Nao Santa Maria, the largest of Columbus’s three vessels sailed to the Americas on 1492. Much like the original, this faith remake has sailed across the world. Today it has made its way up the Thames, to Gravesend.
