Why to a talk about the magnificent and very rare 13th and 14th century stained glass. A very special church, a place of peace and calm

I was made welcome by the priest and church warden. I stayed at the back of the church where there were tables and chairs, which enabled me to read my book and reflect.

From All Saints North Street (The Shrine and Parish Church)
York's finest medieval Church, site of the York Visions of 1421 foretelling the death of Henry V and laying down details for the coronation of the future baby as Henry VI ("The Saintly King") as well as other details. Some of the finest early 15th century stained glass in England. Painted Angel Ceiling of 1471. Roman column. New "medieval style" tile pavement in the Lady Chapel. Fine organ. Good Rood Screen from 1926, surmounted by earlier figures. Anglo Catholic traditional worship within The Church of England. Fantastic clean acoustics, without being "dead".
