England 2019 Episode 10: York
The 15th c. St Olave's Church borders a lush and inviting park leading to the picturesque ruins of St Mary’s Abbey. The abbey dates to the 12th c. and fell into decay following the dissolution of the monasteries.
Reminding us that York's history dates back to a much earlier era, the ruined Multangular Tower reinforces one corner of the Roman town wall. Dating to circa 300 AD, this 12-sided structure was likely a catapult tower to protect the city from river invasion. The lower stones are Roman, the upper medieval.
Nearby, St Leonard's Hospital dates to the 13th c. and at one time was the largest hospital in the North of England. Today's picturesque ruins incorporate the hospital chapel and vaulted crypt. Some birds were on display in an adjoining park.
King’s Manor, built in 1270, was originally the home of the abbott. Following the dissolution of the monasteries, it became Henry VIII’s manor house. Today it is part of the University of York.
York has a nice circuit of restored 13th c. walls which can be walked, offering views of the town with the Minster in the distance. We ascended the walls at Bootham Bar, one of York's 4th c. Roman gates, and descended at Monk’s Bar, whose medieval gatehouse incorporates effigies of guards poised to hurl stones down on potential intruders.
The 12th c. Holy Trinity Church Goodramgate is hidden in a small, secluded churchyard. The church itself is full of character, with floors and arcades that are charmingly uneven. Light filters through the windows, illuminating honey-colored stone. The family box pews are from the 17th century. The east window has marvelous stained glass from the early 1470s. The church is candle lit as there is no electricity.
Perhaps the most famous lane in York is The Shambles, where butchers’ shops were located (a “shammell” is a butcher’s bench). Tourist shops now fill these fine half-timbered Tudor buildings. It is thought that the Shambles was the inspiration for Diagon Alley in the Harry Potter films. The building with the bay window is the Shrine of St Margaret Clitherow, a 16th c. Catholic layperson who was crushed to death under her door by Protestants for hiding priests in her home. The tiny chapel serves as a reminder of both the beauty of devout faith and the horrors of religious extremism.
On a nearby street, a clothing store was originally The Sign Of The Bible bookshop back in 1682, hence the wooden bible that still hangs above the doorway. The shop next door was occupied by a printer, marked by the devil crouching under the eaves. Printing was often referred to as the black art on account of the ink, and as a result, an apprentice in the industry was often known as a printer’s devil.
The Yorkshire Museum tells the story of York from the Roman era through medieval times. On display are Roman sarcophagi, funerary monuments, and even a mosaic floor. The medieval ecclesiastical art include four larger-than-life statues from the 12th c. that were positioned above the entrance to St Mary's Abbey Church, depicting Moses (left) and three Apostles.
Our home for three nights in York was the Alhambra Court Hotel, within easy walking distance of all the sights.
The most noteworthy sight in York is the magnificent York Minster, so I prepared a separate video for it (see next episode).

S Cecilia's Abbey, Ryde
A presentation by the Benedictine Nuns of St Cecilia's Abbey, Ryde, Isle of Wight, UK, describing the soul of the place, the spirit of the Consecrated Life as lived in this monastery. Founded in 1882, the monastery is part of the Solesmes Congregation, has over 30 nuns, and lives a traditional life of prayer, work and study. The nuns chief occupation is the love and worship of God day and night. It is expressed in their communal prayer and Holy Mass: in the love and service which they offer to one another and to the guests received at the monastery: in sacred reading, intercession for the needs of the world, and in their contemplation of God in the silence of their hearts.

STORYLINE :
Thousands of pilgrims gathered in Sarajevo on Saturday to attend the beatification ceremony of five nuns, who were known for their humanitarian work.
Papal envoy Cardinal Angelo Amato led the holy mass.
The nuns worked with sick and needy people, especially children.
In December 1941 the sisters Marija Jula Ivanisevic, Marija Berchmana Leidenix, Marija Krizina Bojanc, Marija Antonija Fabjan and Marija Bernadeta Banja, were captured by Serbian Chetnik soldiers and later executed.
Their bodies were thrown into the Drina river hence their name the ''Drina Martyrs''.
Cardinal Vinko Puljic, currently the Archbishop of Vrhbosna, applied to the former pope John Paul II for the five nuns to be beatified in late 1999.
Pope Benedict XVI approved the beatification in January 2011.
People from across Croatia, Bosnia and the Balkan region packed the Zetra sports hall to witness Saturday''s ceremony.
A pilgrim from Pale Ana Malic said she felt the nuns had earned their beatification.
They deserved it. It is an great moment for them and for us too. I''m so happy.
Pilgrim Marija Klaric said she was delighted by the occasion.
This is such a great thing. We are all happy and we are happy to see this many people here. Really, our hearts are blooming with happiness now.

Winchester - Winchester Cathedral
Winchester Cathedral is a cathedral of the Church of England in Winchester, Hampshire, England. It is one of the largest cathedrals in Europe, with the greatest overall length of any Gothic cathedral.
Dedicated to the Holy Trinity, Saint Peter, Saint Paul, and before the Reformation, Saint Swithun, it is the seat of the Bishop of Winchester and centre of the Diocese of Winchester. The cathedral is a Grade I listed building.
Pre-Norman cathedral
A plan published in 1911
Main article: Old Minster, Winchester
The cathedral was founded in 642 on a site immediately to the north of the present one. This building became known as the Old Minster. It became part of a monastic settlement in 971.
Saint Swithun was buried near the Old Minster and then in it, before being moved to the new Norman cathedral. So-called mortuary chests said to contain the remains of Saxon kings such as King Eadwig of England, first buried in the Old Minster, and his wife Ælfgifu, are in the present cathedral.[5] The Old Minster was demolished in 1093, immediately after the consecration of its successor.[6]

Norman
In 1079, Walkelin, Bishop of Winchester, began work on a completely new cathedral.[6] Much of the limestone used to build the structure was brought across from quarries around Binstead, Isle of Wight. Nearby Quarr Abbey draws its name from these workings, as do several nearby places such as Stonelands and Stonepitts. The remains of the Roman trackway used to transport the blocks are still evident across the fairways of the Ryde Golf Club, where the stone was hauled from the quarries to the hythe at the mouth of Binstead Creek, and thence by barge across the Solent and up to Winchester.[citation needed]
The building was consecrated in 1093. On 8 April of that year, according to the Annals of Winchester, in the presence of almost all the bishops and abbots of England, the monks came with the highest exultation and glory from the old minster to the new one: on the Feast of S. Swithun they went in procession from the new minster to the old one and brought thence S. Swithun's shrine and placed it with honour in the new buildings, and on the following day Walkelin's men first began to pull down the old minster.[6]
A substantial amount of the fabric of Walkelin's building, including crypt, transepts and the basic structure of the nave, survives.[7] The original crossing tower, however, collapsed in 1107, an accident blamed by the cathedral's medieval chroniclers on the burial of the dissolute William Rufus beneath it in 1100.[6] Its replacement, which survives today, is still in the Norman style, with round-headed windows. It is a squat, square structure, 50 feet (15 m) wide, but rising only 35 feet (11 m) above the ridge of the transept roof.[8] The Tower is 150 feet (46 m) tall.[9]
Gothic

The choir stalls facing west
After the consecration of Godfrey de Luci as bishop in 1189, a retrochoir was added in the Early English style. The next major phase of rebuilding was not until the mid-14th century, under bishops Edington and Wykeham. Edingdon (1346–1366) removed the two westernmost bays of the nave, built a new west front and began the remodelling of the nave.
Under William of Wykeham (1367–1404) the Romanesque nave was transformed,[clarification needed] recased in Caen stone and remodelled in the Perpendicular style, with its internal elevation divided into two, rather than the previous three, storeys. The wooden ceilings were replaced with stone vaults.
