@tweedtotyne They relocated the original porch to fit it in. And it provides a valuable (easily heated) community meeting space, with facilities @DioceseOfYork
QI at #TempleMoore Nunthorpe, St Mary, thinking that the old church architects knew it all and we know nuffink... Spiral treads scooped at the newel to restrain a rope handrail. The modern replacement is somewhat weedy compared.
@100Covers Thank you so much for posting this. It was the only mag to buy at the time (Melody Maker and NME were in terminal decline). And Frame's rock family trees were unique. So it's great to dip in and time travel back to my best record buying days.
@__Capstone__ If suffering from 'return from holiday blues' try this. A bit dated in its attitudes (Oxbridge old boy's club) but still fascinating trip round Greek archaeology in the 1950's. Love the #QuentinBlake style dwg. https://t.co/9hXXHYxniz
Tomorrow is the Feast of Corpus Christi, where we celebrate the presence of the Lord in the Eucharist.
There will be a mass with Procession outside at 7:30pm!
Below are some pictures of the Feast in previous years
This summer, Joe (with his back up team of me, Ed, Aunty Zoe and Big Al) will be making an epic 26 mile trek along the North Yorkshire coast to raise money for the Alzheimer's Society. Support us if you can x

@NE_Arch_Hist@DioceseofDurham Lovely, thank you. The story is apparently that the font was hidden from the Parliamentarians, then recovered from the Rector's garden. A practical priest took to filling gaps in the 1970s himself with pure cement (of the hardest grade known to man).
Unexpected and lovely gift when visiting Hart, St Mary Magdalene @DioceseofDurham to look at their heating and font. They have their Saxon treasures on display now. And they are very impressive.
@clarescastle Top marks Clarissa for visiting. Yes, isn't it a joy! The pew ends were 'rescued' from Bridlington Priory at the dissolution. It has lovely glass too. Harry Harvey of York @DioceseOfYork
@furniss_sons@DioceseOfYork Clever! I thought it might be burning the nail into the hole like a file tang into a handle. And the nail turn over technique I was taught was clenching- as in buttocks.
Thank you for posting this. It's the reason I'm still on Twitter to be with the helpful conservation community
Open air meeting for the QI with the lovely Yvonne and Caroline of the quirky Marton in the Forest, Nr Stillington @DioceseOfYork Grade II*, C18th with C12 origins and on a Saxon site. With the best view from a compostable loo. @AABC_architect
