Canon Richard Walker will celebrate a special Mass to commemorate the English Martyrs in the beautiful grounds of Harvington Hall in Worcestershire.

A house which holds many secrets, Harvington contains seven priest hides.

The annual pilgrimage to Harvington offers you a chance to reflect on our own faith and the persecution, and often martyrdom, of Catholics during the English Reformation.

Guided tours of the house are free on the day of the pilgrimage.

You can bring your own picnic and the Malt House Cafe will be open to purchase cakes and treats.

The parish will provide free refreshments (tea, coffee, juice) in the Priest's garden by Harvington Parish Church after the Mass (feel free to bring a picnic to the Priest's Garden too).

Timings and information

Doors open 1pm. Picnic area open. Malt House Cafe open to purchase tea, coffee and a bite to eat.

Confessions from 1.45 pm – 2.30 pm

Mass at 3.00 pm

After Mass: Free refreshments (tea, coffee, juice) in the Priest's garden by Harvington Parish Church. Picnics welcome.

You must bring your own chairs

The Hall has free parking and a picnic area. 

Free timed tours of Harvington Hall are available and may be booked on the day at the table in the courtyard.

2022 Pilgrimage, Saturday 14 May

Parishes are invited to join this year’s Pilgrimage to Walsingham after a two-year break.

On previous pilgrimages to Walsingham most people have travelled by coaches organised by their local parishes. Anyone who would like to take part in this year’s pilgrimage is advised to speak to their parish priest in the first instance, to join a coach organised locally.

Otherwise please contact Fr Philip Griffin, pilgrimage organiser, who may be able to put you in contact with a coach organiser.

This year’s programme:

Pilgrims are invited to arrive at the Shrine from 11am. There will be time for them to visit the Slipper Chapel and Chapel of Reconciliation, as well as the Shrine shop and café before Mass at 1pm, in the Chapel of Reconciliation. At 3pm, we begin the procession to the Priory ruins in the village which will conclude with a time of prayer at the site of the Holy House.

Mass will be celebrated by Fr Gwilym Lloyd, parish priest at St Anne's, Streetly and member of the Walsingham Shrine Council.

The preacher is Fr Michael Dolman, Rector of St Mary's College, Oscott.

The Shrine website provides detailed information about Walsingham and its significance as the National Shrine to Our Lady and a place of pilgrimage in pre-reformation England.

For more information and assistance please contact Fr Philip Griffin can be contacted on 01384 395308 or via email: [email protected]
