Walking Festival May 2023

RSHG will be taking part on two days of this year’s walking festival, Tuesday 16th and Saturday 20th. To take in the whole guided walk including the chapels, you can make a booking on the Walking Festival website.

The three chapels will be open to view, with different exhibitions available and various other items to peruse. The St Pauls chapel nearest to West Street isn’t open very often, so this is a chance to have a look round.

As usual there will be refreshments available in the North chapel all the while we are open.

We look forward to seeing you.
