Britain's What's On Event Guide
Our Lady of the Annunciation Roman Catholic Church
Heritage Open Day: Unique Replica Holy House inside. All are welcome at the 11.30 am Mass or the 4 pm Vespers and Benediction
Built in 1897 to a design by W. Lunn and replacing an earlier church of 1845 by A.W.N. Pugin. Much of Pugin’s work is included in the new church especially the stained-glass window designed by him and executed by William Wailes (the oldest stained-glass window in Lynn). In the church is the restored Shrine of Our Lady of Walsingham established by Pope Leo XIII in 1897. It is a copy of the Holy House of Nazareth. See also the tomb of Lorenz Beha, Lynn clockmaker, horribly murdered in 1853. We are celebrating 125 Years of Our Lady’s this year and there will be a new Shrine of St. Felix (who landed at Babingley, which is in our parish). (Lavatories available. Disabled access.)
