Where would you go?
A place I’d like to revisit on pilgrimage is Aylesford Priory in Kent. I often went there as a child and young adult with my family and our beloved neighbours Cis and Arthur. Visiting Aylesford planted in me a fondness for church and the Catholic faith at a young age. It’s also known as The Friars because it’s the home of the Carmelites, founded by St Simon Stock in the 1200s. It’s an ancient place with a timeless beauty, sacredness, and a unique blend of light through darkness, constantly urging you to stop and pause to be inspired.
