Save the Dates for 2024: 5-9 August

It's been a busy weekend for The Society in the Diocese of Leeds.  Apart from all the wonderful things happing in our parishes there has also been,

​The Walsingham Trustees have taken back responsibility for the small garden chapel, built by Sir William Milner and consecrated in 1939, in the grounds of Parcevall Hall in the Yorkshire Dales.  The entire estate was bequeathed to the Shrine, and currently the hall itself is leased to the Diocese of Leeds as a retreat house, the grounds being open to the public.

Mass is celebrated every month except December and January.  All Masses will be celebrated by a priest of The Society. 

Masses arranged for the rest of 2023 are:  

Wednesday 21st June
Saturday 15th July (See note below)
Friday 18th August.
Friday 8th September.
Friday 27th October
Saturday 18th November 

Each at 12 Noon.  As you enter the gardens, tell them you are going to the service at the chapel and you will not have to pay the entrance fee.

If you haven’t been before, Parcevall Hall is located at Skyreholme, near the picturesque village of Appletreewick. Brown direction signs point the way from both the B6160 and the B6265. Sat Nav setting BD23 6DE. Free car parking is available to visitors. 

The July Mass is for all Society Parishes. Bishop Stephen Race will be celebrating and preaching.
Please bring a picnic to eat in the grounds - weather permitting. This event is the successor to
the old Bradford Diocese FiF Annual Summer Mass. 

It is a beautiful place to visit in a beautiful part of Yorkshire.  All are welcome to join in this exciting venture of The Society of St Wilfrid and St Hilda.  If you would like to be kept informed of other Masses as they are arranged or think it would make a good parish outing, email  canonannturner@icloud.com
