In Chaucer's Footsteps - Pilgrimage to Canterbury
Mon, 29 May 2023 10:00
London to Canterbury Pilgrimage
Walk in Chaucer's footsteps from St Martin in the Fields, Trafalgar Square to Canterbury. Much of the 74 mile route follows ancient paths along the North Downs. The pilgrimage will take place from Friday, 26th May to Monday 29th May.
Pilgrims will pause for refreshments at All Saints, Boughton Aluph between about 10.00 and 12.00
If the weather is inclement there is usually a welcoming fire burning in the fireplace in the south porch. This is an unusual feature to find in a church, but it has served many previous generations of pilgrims on their way to the shrine of St Thomas Becket
The pilgrimage raises funds for The Connection, based at St Martin in the Fields since 1948. The charity helps homeless people by providing specialist services – including a day and night centre, outreach for rough sleepers, skills training and career advice, activity programmes and specialist support for complex needs – to over 200 people in central London every day.
- Venue:
- All Saints, Boughton Aluph.
