Friends of Binham Priory |
There will be two more events this year. 9th to 12th September the Friends will be helping greet visitors coming to the Priory over these four days when the site will be featured, along with over 4,000 across the country, in the programme for the National Heritage Open Days. We hope to have some members in medieval costume, offering tours and refreshments, giving our visitors a modest impression of traditional Benedictine hospitality. On Friday 8th October a visit to Ely Cathedral is being planned. Tony Hull, a Cathedral Guide, will lead a tour of this awe-inspiring building and the surrounding historic area. A group lunch will be arranged. Forthcoming Activities for 2010
The Friends would like to help in welcoming visitors to The Priory during some, or all, of these days which are designated nationally “Heritage Open Days” We hope to offer tours and have refreshments available. The Priory will be featured in the Heritage Open Days publicity, promoted by English Heritage. Last year over 4,000 properties were included, attracting more than 1 million visitors. Further details, and requests for help, will be available nearer the date.
The day will include a tour of the Cathedral and other historic buildings, lead by Tony Hull, a Cathedral Guide. A coach will be organised and lunch arranged. Further details will be available nearer the date.
