Britain's What's On Event Guide
All Saints Church, Hawnby, Ryedale, North Yorkshire
Heritage Open Day: All Saints, Hawnby is a beautiful historic building in a peaceful and stunning rural setting by the River Rye in Ryedale. It is a poetry shrine, and a listed building with a fascinating history dating back to the 12th century. Lying in a secluded rural setting just outside the village of Hawnby in Ryedale, All Saints dates back to the 12th century with many historical features and links including a rather fine stained glass window commemorating 'the fighting parson of Hawnby' in the First World War. The church is keen to welcome poets and at the rear is a collection of poetry books and a folder marked 'Fresh Poems In Here' accompanied by pens and paper. Historical information will be on display and light refreshments will be available.
