On this day: Huntington churchgoers time-travel to the medieval era
On this day in 2015, the York Press reported that churchgoers had stepped back in time to experience medieval life. The time-travelling event took place at All Saints Church in Huntington as part of the month-long Church Explorers! project. Volunteers dressed in period clothing and shared stories from the Middle Ages, while archaeologists and stained glass experts helped to give an insight into the history of the church. The Rt Revd Dr John Thomson, Bishop of Selby, said: "I'm delighted that so many churches are taking part in Church Explorers! and I hope that hundreds of people will visit them as part of the festival. "Church Explorers! is a great way to encourage people to visit their regions' churches, discover their histories, and experience a Christian welcome. "Our churches tell the rich stories of their communities over the generations and are still full of life today." The Church Explorers! project was being run by Jorvik Mediaeval Festival Churches Conservation Trust and the Diocese of York, and involved churches in North, East, and West Yorkshire throughout August of 2015.
