The Assumption Pilgrimage to Mount Grace

The pilgrimage takes place at the Lady Chapel on Mount Grace above Osmotherley on Sunday 16th August with Mass at 3pm. This year will be extra special as it will be a joint pilgrimage for the Middlesbrough and Leeds Dioceses.

Please note the following practical arrangements;

car parking: this is available in a field at the top of North End (the road from Osmotherley to Swainby via Sheepwash) opposite Rueberry Lane (the road/track to the Lady Chapel). No cars or vehicles will be allowed up Rueberry Lane.

coaches: these will not be allowed up North End but will drop pilgrims off in the village centre by the market cross. There will be a mini-bus shuttle up to the car park for those who need it.

lifts up the hill: available to the elderly or anyone who has difficulty walking. Lifts will operate from the car park to the Lady Chapel.

seating: this is very limited at the Lady Chapel. Please bring your own seating.

Refreshments will be available and there will be a piety stall.

As regular pilgrims will testify this is a great celebration. If you have never been before, why not make the pilgrimage this year?
