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.
