English Heritage introduces ‘hour of contemplation’ at its former monasteries
English Heritage is launching an ‘hour of contemplation’ at its monasteries in a month-long trial this autumn. From 22 September until 22 October 2021, English Heritage will be encouraging visitors to turn off notifications on their phones, finish up their conversations and enjoy the final hour of public access to its abbeys and priories in contemplative quiet, enabling them to experience these spiritual buildings as they were intended.

New portrait of Queen Victoria’s African goddaughter goes on display at Osborne
A new painting of Sarah Forbes Bonetta, the daughter of an African ruler who became Queen Victoria’s goddaughter, has been unveiled at Osborne, the Queen’s seaside home on the Isle of Wight. English Heritage announced today (7 October 2020) that it will also be commissioning portraits of other historical black figures associated with the charity’s sites and whose stories like Bonetta’s, have been previously overlooked. The painting of Bonetta by artist Hannah Uzor is on display at Osborne throughout October – Black History Month – and will then return on display next spring as part of English Heritage’s wider series of portraits across several sites.
