Enjoy a warm welcome to St Gregory's, part of the Benefice of Lower Wensleydale. Go on a personal pilgrimage through an exhibition of photographs from across the ages, discover the history of local landmarks such as Crakehall watermill, our Cricket Club and village school from the displays and take the opportunity to hear the recollections of local people recorded for this event. There will also be places available in free workshops suitable for all ages led by local artist Rebekah Findlay, celebrating the deep personal connections people hold with St Gregory's church. You can help to create a piece of art that will serve as a visual testament to shared heritage, faith and belonging. All materials will be provided.
