On Saturday November 20 a High Mass in the Extraordinary Form of the Roman Rite was celebrated in the Cathedral Church of St Mary, Newcastle Upon Tyne, for only the second time since the liturgical changes following the Second Vatican Council.
The Mass was organised by the local branch of the Latin Mass Society, which arranged a previous celebration in 2008. The cathedral dean, Fr Peter Leighton, and his curate, Fr Chris Warren, helped to make arrangements, and Fr Warren was present in choir on the day.
