This Lent there is a rare opportunity to access London’s Heythrop Library and the British Jesuit Archives to see all manner of relics, rare books, historical documents and photographs drawn from Catholic and Christian history, especially relating to the British Isles and to Ireland.

Heythrop Library is usually only accessible to members, with non members often needing to pay for accessing its collections, while the British Jesuit Archives is a private archive and visits are usually by appointment only.
